Spicing up chicken...

I need some help... I've looked around on the 'net and found some spice rubs I want to use for chicken, but I know there are a lot of good cooks here on CP.

I'm trying to find ways to spice up chicken, but I'm not looking to grill exclusively. I cook a lot of chicken (mainly skinless, boneless breasts due to diet), but I don't always feel like firing up the grill.

I typically butterfly the breast to get more spice coverage and cook quicker and generally reach for the cast iron pan with just a touch of oil since the pan is pretty well-seasoned.

Anyone have a favorite spice rub/recipe/blend they like? I'm more interested in something I'd make myself, but if you're a big fan of a specific bottled rub I'd be interested in that, too!

Thanks!

Not a fan of ginger? I like it, and use it quite often. Freshly grated usually, but a rub would require powdered.

During the week when my wife works late, I tend to stirfry myself some chicken and broccolli, varying the sauce so I don't get sick of it (although every now and then I DO get sick of it, snap, and go to the nearest steak house and order a nice big juicy medium rare filet smothered with mushrooms, like I did last night, but I digress).

Anyway, in the produce section, Target sells tubes of garlic and ginger that taste fresh without the hassle of pressing/grinding them yourself. They taste great and are great time savers. I buy frozen broccolli florets at Costco and steam them while I'm cutting up and cooking the chicken (breasts also bought in bulk from Costco), then after I've removed the steamer I use the boiling water beneath to heat up a pack of noodles. For sauces, I vary between peanut, oyster, Szechwan and some Vietnamese stuff that I can't remember the name of right now. I also add some chili garlic sauce to the mix because I like it spicy. Basically I can prepare a big, reasonably healthy meal for myself in just over 10 minutes.

I discovered a very nice flavor yesterday... instead of olive oil to grease the pan, use a chile infused olive oil. Give a very subtle heat, very nice. I'd never used the stuff before.

I usually throw to together a rub using paprika, salt pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, ground thyme, cayenne, oregano or something to that effect. I'd say it ends up being about 1/4 paprika, the quantities just depends on what you like and what you're using it for. It works for most any meat or vegetable.

If you're wanting to grill or bbq you can use the same basic recipe and add some dry mustard, celery salt and brown sugar.

The nice part of mixing your own seasoning is that you can make them to your own taste. Like it hot, add more cayenne, don't like it hot, don't add any.
