This simply seasoned, all-around family pleaser lets the tasty flavours of chicken and broccoli shine through. Cooking the chicken and vegetables in just one skillet saves on cooking time and clean up.

Ingredients

  • 1 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts or turkey breasts
  • 2 tsp vegetable oil
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp pepper
  • 3 cups chopped broccoli
  • 1 onion, sliced
  • 1 sweet red pepper, cut_in strips
  • 1/2 cup chicken stock
  • 2/3 cup 2% reduced fat milk
  • 1 tsp cornstarch
  • 1/2 cup shredded white old cheddar cheese

Preparation

Cut chicken into finger-size strips. In large nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat; brown chicken, with thyme, salt and pepper, about 4 minutes. Transfer to plate.

Add broccoli, onion, red pepper and stock; bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium; cover and cook, stirring occasionally, for 4 minutes. Uncover and cook for 5 minutes.

Return chicken strips to skillet along with any accumulated juices on plate.

In small bowl, whisk together milk and cornstarch until cornstarch is dissolved; pour into pan and cook, stirring constantly, for about 3 minutes or until sauce is slightly thickened and chicken is no longer pink inside. Serve sprinkled with Cheddar cheese.
