Notes

This dish is best served hot! Garnish with fresh herbs like parsley or a sprinkle of grated cheese for extra flavor. Feel free to use any vegetables you have on hand. Frozen mixed veggies work great too! You can marinate the chicken in your favorite sauce for extra flavor before cooking. Use a non-stick skillet to make sure everything cooks evenly and doesn’t stick.
