HOW TO MAKE IT

Let's cook.

01

Cut chicken breasts into 1-inch pieces. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

02

Add chicken pieces to the skillet and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until browned on all sides. Remove chicken from the skillet and set aside.

03

Add chopped onion to the same skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes, or until softened. Add minced garlic and cook for 1 minute more until fragrant.

04

Stir in sliced carrots and diced potatoes. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

05

Pour in 1 cup of chicken broth, then add dried thyme, salt, and black pepper. Bring to a simmer.

06

Return the browned chicken to the skillet. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and cook for 10-12 minutes, or until potatoes are tender and chicken is cooked through.

07

Stir well and serve hot.
