Chicken and Vegetable Skillet

Instructions

1. 1

   Begin by cleaning and patting dry the chicken breasts and legs. Season them with salt, pepper, and any other preferred spices.

2. 2

   Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add a tablespoon of oil. Once hot, add the chicken pieces and sear them until golden brown on both sides, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove the chicken and set aside.

3. 3

   In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of oil if needed. Add the diced onions and celery, and sauté until they start to soften, about 2 minutes.

4. 4

   Add the diced potatoes and carrots to the skillet, and cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

5. 5

   Slice the bell peppers into strips and add them to the skillet. Cook for an additional 2 minutes.

6. 6

   Return the chicken to the skillet, nestling it among the vegetables. Cover the skillet, reduce the heat to medium-low, and let it simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender.

7. 7

   Check for seasoning and adjust with salt and pepper as needed. Serve hot directly from the skillet.
