Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 3 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp dried Italian seasoning
  • Salt and black pepper

Method
 

  1. Pat chicken dry, season with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning, and let sit 5 minutes while a skillet heats over medium-high.
  2. Heat oil in the skillet, add chicken in a single layer, and sear 3 to 4 minutes per side until golden and cooked through.
  3. Push chicken aside, add butter and garlic, cook 30 seconds until fragrant, then toss to coat and serve hot.

Notes

If the chicken sticks to the pan, it is not ready to flip. Wait until it releases easily. Let the cubes rest a minute after saucing so the butter settles into the meat.
