If needed, melt the butter in the microwave for ONE MINUTE on HIGH. The chicken breasts must be skinless and boneless. Dip the chicken breasts on both sides in the melted butter. Place on waxed paper.

Combine the spice mix ingredients and sprinkle over both sides of the chicken breasts. Pat the mixture firmly into the meat. Place a large cast iron skillet over medium high heat for 8 minutes. Add the chicken breasts, first with the "skin" side down, and cook until "blackened". This may produced smoke so be sure there is adequate ventilation. Turn the chicken over and cook until it is cooked through (about 10 minutes in all). Serve at once.
