# Instructions:
01 -
Cut the chicken into 1-inch pieces, season with salt and pepper, and set aside.
02 -
In a small bowl, mix together garlic powder, onion powder, thyme, rosemary, paprika, and chili powder. Sprinkle half of the seasoning mix over the chicken.
03 -
Drizzle ½ tablespoon of olive oil over the chicken, tossing it to coat evenly.
04 -
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook for 6 to 8 minutes, turning occasionally, until browned and fully cooked. Transfer the chicken to a plate, cover, and set aside.
05 -
Return the skillet to the stove and heat the remaining olive oil. Add the onions and cook for 2 minutes, then add the broccoli, zucchini, and peppers. If needed, add a little more oil. Season with the rest of the spice mix, along with some salt and pepper, and cook for 4 to 6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are crisp-tender.
06 -
Pour in the chicken broth and stir to combine. Return the cooked chicken and its juices to the skillet, stir everything together, and cook for another minute.
07 -
Remove from heat, taste, and adjust seasoning if needed. Garnish with parsley and serve.
