Ingredients
  

For the Chicken
  • 1 lb Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breasts Substitute with firm tofu or white beans for a vegetarian alternative.
For the Vegetables
  • 1 medium Onion Try yellow or red onions for a different flavor profile.
  • 2 medium Bell Peppers Any color; switch with seasonal vegetables like zucchini or corn.
  • 1 cup Broccoli Florets Fresh is ideal but green beans or peas work too.
For Seasoning
  • 1 tsp Garlic Powder Fresh minced garlic can boost the taste even more.
  • 0.5 tsp Salt Adjust according to your taste.
  • 1 pinch Black Pepper Leave it out for a milder flavor.
For Cooking
  • 1 tbsp Olive Oil You can use avocado oil for a higher smoke point.

Equipment

  • Large skillet

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat a large skillet over medium-high heat for about 2-3 minutes. Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and let it shimmer.
  2. Carefully place the boneless, skinless chicken breasts in the skillet and sear for approximately 5-7 minutes until golden brown.
  3. Once the chicken is browned, stir in diced onion and bell peppers. Continue to cook for about 5 minutes until the vegetables soften.
  4. Add in the broccoli florets, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir well and cook for another minute or two.
  5. Cover the skillet and let it simmer for an additional 5-7 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and broccoli is tender-crisp.
