Hurray for one pot dinners! They are quick, easy, tasty and have minimal clean up! What could be better? 1 tablespoon oil 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1″ pieces (I was in a hurry and so just used a can of Costco chicken and left out the oil) 1 (1 pound) bag … Continue reading
