Make quick, flavorful chicken bites cooked in a rich garlic butter sauce 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 cup broccoli florets
  • 1 medium carrot, sliced
  • 1 red bell pepper, chopped
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 1 tsp dried Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 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 the 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 1 minute until fragrant. Do not let the garlic burn.
  4. Add the broccoli, carrots, and bell pepper to the skillet. Sauté for 4 minutes until the vegetables start to become tender-crisp.
  5. Pour in the chicken broth and add the Italian seasoning. Bring the liquid to a simmer.
  6. Return the cooked chicken to the skillet. Toss everything together to coat the chicken and vegetables in the garlic butter sauce. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce has slightly thickened.
  7. Remove from heat. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

Notes

  • Serve this dish over rice, quinoa, or pasta for a complete meal.
  • For extra richness, stir in 2 tablespoons of grated Parmesan cheese at the very end.
  • You can substitute the vegetables with mushrooms, zucchini, or snap peas based on what you have available.
