Make quick, flavorful chicken bites coated in a rich garlic butter sauce, cooked with mixed vegetables in one skillet.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 4 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 1/2 tsp dried Italian seasoning
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 cup broccoli florets
  • 1 cup sliced carrots
  • 1 red bell pepper, chopped
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Season the chicken pieces with salt and pepper.
  2. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook until browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Remove chicken from the skillet and set aside.
  3. Reduce the heat to medium. Add the butter to the skillet. Once melted, add the minced garlic and cook for about 1 minute until fragrant. Do not let the garlic burn.
  4. Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a simmer, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
  5. Add the broccoli, carrots, and bell pepper to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes until the vegetables start to become tender-crisp.
  6. Return the cooked chicken to the skillet. Stir in the Italian seasoning.
  7. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the chicken is heated through and the sauce has slightly thickened.
  8. Remove from heat and garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

Notes

  • Serve this dish over cooked rice or quinoa for a complete meal.
  • You can substitute the vegetables with zucchini, mushrooms, or snap peas based on what you have available.
  • For a richer sauce, add 1 tablespoon of heavy cream at the end of cooking.
