- ½ tsp sweet paprika
- ½ tsp salt
- freshly ground pepper to taste

Instructions
- Dry the chicken breasts with a paper towel and cut them into 1-inch pieces.
- Place the chicken in a bowl and sprinkle with flour, basil, paprika, oregano, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat the pieces evenly.

- Serve hot, either alone or with your favorite sides like rice, pasta, or a fresh salad.
Notes

Feel free to adjust the seasonings based on your taste preference.
For extra flavor, consider adding a splash of lemon juice before serving.
