Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Toss chicken with 2 tbsp olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, paprika, salt, and pepper. Let sit 5 minutes.

  2. Step 2

    Heat a 12-inch cast iron skillet or grill pan over medium-high until smoking, ~2 minutes.

  5. Step 5

    Dress cabbage with remaining 1 tbsp olive oil, 1 tbsp lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
