Step 1
Cut the 1.5 lb chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and season with salt and pepper. Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Step 2
Add the chicken in a single layer and cook until golden and crispy on all sides, about 6-8 minutes. Remove from skillet and set aside.
Step 3
In the same skillet, add 2 cups broccoli florets and 1.5 cups frozen mixed vegetables. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until slightly tender.
Step 4
Pour in 1 cup heavy cream and 0.5 cup chicken broth. Stir and bring to a simmer, scraping up any browned bits.
Step 5
Return the chicken to the skillet and simmer for 3-4 minutes until the sauce thickens and the chicken is cooked through. Serve hot.
