Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 ½ pounds boneless chicken breasts Can substitute with chicken thighs for more moisture.
  • 1 ½ tsp creole seasoning
  • 2 crowns broccoli, chopped
  • 1 cup grape tomatoes
  • ¼ cup sun-dried tomatoes
  • ½ cup half-and-half
  • ¼ cup shredded parmesan cheese
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • ½ tsp onion powder
  • ¾ tsp garlic powder
  • 1 ½ tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • A pinch crushed red pepper flakes Adjust to taste for spiciness.
  • ½ tsp dried oregano

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  2. Season the chopped chicken with creole seasoning, onion powder, and garlic powder. Add it to the skillet, cooking for about 10 minutes until fully cooked.
Cooking
  1. Stir in chopped broccoli, grape tomatoes, crushed red pepper flakes, oregano, and sun-dried tomatoes; cook for an additional 10 minutes until the vegetables are tender.
  2. Lower the heat and mix in half-and-half. Top with parmesan and mozzarella cheese, allowing it to melt before serving.

Notes

For more flavor, consider marinating the chicken in olive oil, garlic, and herbs before cooking. Customize the vegetables to your liking; spinach and zucchini also work well.
