Ingredients
Scale
- 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon paprika
- ½ teaspoon dried thyme
- ½ teaspoon dried rosemary
- ¼ to ½ teaspoon chili powder, to taste
- 1 onion, thinly sliced
- 1 small head broccoli, cut into bite-sized florets
- 1 zucchini, sliced into half-moons
- 1 red bell pepper, chopped into 1-inch pieces
- 1 yellow bell pepper, chopped into 1-inch pieces
- ¼ cup low-sodium chicken broth
- Chopped fresh parsley, for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Start by cutting the chicken into 1-inch pieces. Season with salt and black pepper.
- Combine the garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, thyme, rosemary, and chili powder in a small bowl. Sprinkle half of this seasoning mix over the chicken, then toss with ½ tablespoon of olive oil until well coated.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large (12-inch) skillet over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned chicken to the skillet and cook for about 6-8 minutes, or until browned and cooked through. Set the chicken aside on a plate.
- Add the remaining half tablespoon of olive oil to the skillet. Toss in the sliced onion and sauté for about 2 minutes.
- Next, stir in the broccoli florets, zucchini, and bell peppers. Sprinkle the remaining seasoning over the vegetables and cook for approximately 5 minutes, or until they are crisp-tender.
- Pour in the chicken broth, scraping any browned bits off the bottom of the pan to incorporate into the sauce. Return the chicken along with any juices to the skillet and stir for another minute.
- Remove the skillet from the heat, garnish with chopped parsley if desired, and serve hot!
