Ingredients
- 2 tbsp olive oil (divided)

- Salt & black pepper (to taste)
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp onion powder
- ½ tsp dried thyme
- ½ tsp dried rosemary
- ½ tsp paprika
- ¼–½ tsp chili powder
- 1 small yellow onion, thinly sliced
- 3 cups bite-size broccoli florets
- 1 zucchini, sliced into half-moons

- 1 small red bell pepper, cut into 1-inch chunks
- ¼ cup low-sodium chicken broth (or dry white wine, apple juice, or water)

Instructions
1️⃣ Season the Chicken: Cut chicken into 1-inch pieces. In a small bowl, mix garlic powder, onion powder, thyme, rosemary, paprika, and chili powder. Coat chicken with half of the spice mix and ½ tbsp olive oil.
2️⃣ Cook the Chicken: Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Cook chicken for 6-8 minutes, turning occasionally, until browned and fully cooked. Transfer to a plate and cover.
3️⃣ Sauté the Vegetables: In the same skillet, heat the remaining ½ tbsp olive oil. Add onions, cooking for 2 minutes, then stir in broccoli, zucchini, and bell peppers. Season with remaining spice mix, salt, and pepper. Cook for 4-6 minutes until crisp-tender.
4️⃣ Combine Everything: Pour in chicken broth and stir. Return the chicken and juices to the pan, mixing well. Cook for another minute.
5️⃣ Serve & Enjoy: Remove from heat, adjust seasoning if needed, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve warm!
