Ingredients
- 5 tablespoons unsalted divided
- 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil divided
- 3-4 large garlic cloves finely minced
- 1 lb. boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
- sea salt and black pepper to taste
- 3 tablespoons lemon juice
- ½ cup chicken broth or water
- 1 cup red cabbage chopped small
- 2 cups fresh broccoli florets or frozen, chopped small*
- 3 tablespoons fresh parsley chopped
Instructions
- Add 3 tablespoons butter and two tablespoons olive oil to a large skillet set over medium heat. Add garlic and sauté until golden brown, approximately 1-2 minute.
- Add chicken and season with salt and black pepper, as desired. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is nicely browned on all sides, approximately 7-8 minutes.
- Transfer the chicken to a platter and set aside.
- Add the lemon juice and chicken broth and deglaze the bottom of the skillet by gently scraping with a spatula. Simmer until the liquid is reduced by half, approximately 2-3 minutes.
- Add remaining butter and oil to the hot skillet. Add the red cabbage and broccoli to the skillet and cook, stirring frequently, until the vegetables are just tender, approximately 2-3 minutes. Do not overcook.
- Return the chicken to the skillet and stir to combine. Once chicken is heated through, remove from heat. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately. Enjoy!
* For best results, use fresh broccoli as it will provide better color in the finished dish. If using frozen, thaw and drain completely before adding to the hot skillet.
