Ingredients
  

  • 1 ½ lbs skinless, boneless chicken thighs (cut into bite-sized pieces)
  • 2 tbsp avocado oil
  • 3 tbsp unsalted butter (divided)
  • 1 lb frozen broccoli florets
  • ½ cup chicken broth
  • 4 garlic cloves (minced)
  • 1 tbsp Italian seasoning
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp red wine vinegar
  • ½ tsp salt

Instructions
 

  • Heat the avocado oil in a large skillet over medium heat for 2 minutes. Add the diced chicken, browning and turning occasionally so all sides are browned evenly for 6-8 minutes. Transfer the cooked chicken to a plate and set aside.
  • Add 2 tbsp of butter to the skillet, then add the frozen broccoli. Cook the broccoli for 5-6 minutes, turning occasionally until tender-crisp.
  • Add the chicken back to the skillet along with the chicken broth, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, red wine vinegar, onion powder, salt, and the remaining 1 tbsp butter. Continue to cook for 3-5 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the broccoli is tender.
  • Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately.
