Ingredients
- 2 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme

- 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 2 cup broccoli florets
- 1 medium zucchini, sliced
- 1 red bell pepper, sliced

Instructions
1. Season the chicken by tossing it with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, thyme, rosemary, and chili powder.
2. Heat 2 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned chicken and cook for 5-6 minutes, or until golden and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

4. Pour the chicken broth into the skillet, stir, and return the cooked chicken to the pan. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender-crisp and the chicken is heated through.
5. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired and serve hot.
