  • Prep: 15 min. Cook: 15 min.
  • Yield: 4 Servings
    •
15 15 30

Ingredients

  • 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts, halved, about 1 lb
  • 1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 1/4 teaspoons black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 3/4 lb sliced yellow summer squash
  • 3/4 lb medium zucchini, sliced
  • 1 medium tomato, peeled, seeded, and chopped

Directions

  • In large nonstick skillet, combine butter and oil, heat over medium-high until butter melts.
  • Season chicken with half of salt and pepper. Add to skillet.
  • Cook over medium-high until lightly browned, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to large plate or platter, and cover to keep warm.
  • Pour off fat from skillet, add squash, zucchini, and tomato. Season with remaining salt and pepper.
  • Cook and stir over medium-high until squash is slightly softened, about 3 minutes.
  • Reduce heat to low, and return chicken to skillet. Cover partially.
  • Cook until squash is soft, and chicken is white throughout but still juicy, about 5 minutes.
  • Transfer chicken to platter, and cover with foil to keep warm.
  • Increase heat to high. Cook vegetable mixture, stirring often, until almost all liquid has evaporated, about 2 minutes.
  • Arrange vegetables around chicken, and serve.

This recipe was simple and easy. I didn't have the zucchini but I just used all yellow squash, added chopped onions and bell peppers I left everything together and served over Garlic and Olive Oil Vermicelli, everything just blended so well...tys for an awesome recipe!
