Mix the paprika, garlic powder, ground thyme, salt and pepper together in a small bowl.
Rub the spice mix on both sides of the chicken breasts.
Drizzle the olive oil into a large stove-top skillet.
Add the chicken breasts and cook on both sides until the juices run clear and the chicken temperature is 165°
When the chicken is done, remove it from the skillet and let it sit for 5 minutes.
Slice the chicken into strips.
