Advice
When making chicken and broccoli, start by prepping the ingredients. Cut the chicken into bite-sized pieces, and rinse the broccoli and cut into small florets. Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add oil and the chicken. Season with salt and pepper and cook until the chicken is golden and cooked through. Add the broccoli to the skillet, season with salt and pepper, and cook for a few minutes, stirring occasionally until the broccoli is tender. Serve with your favorite sauce or seasonings. If you want to add extra flavor to your chicken and broccoli dish, consider adding garlic, onion, or other herbs and spices to the skillet with the chicken and broccoli.
