A bold and comforting one-skillet meal combining spicy chicken with tender vegetables and crispy potatoes. Ideal for a quick and satisfying dinner.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs, diced
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper (optional, for extra heat)
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 2 cups baby potatoes, halved
  • 1 red bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 green bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 zucchini, chopped
  • 1/2 red onion, sliced
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • Chopped fresh parsley, for garnish

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, season chicken with paprika, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat evenly.
  2. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken and sauté for 6–8 minutes or until browned and cooked through. Remove and set aside.
  3. Add the remaining olive oil to the skillet. Add potatoes and cook for 8–10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden and nearly tender.
  4. Add bell peppers, zucchini, and onion. Cook for another 5–7 minutes until vegetables are soft and slightly caramelized.
  5. Return chicken to the skillet and pour in chicken broth. Stir well and simmer for 3–5 minutes to blend flavors and heat through.
  6. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve hot.

Notes

  • Use a non-stick or cast-iron skillet for best results.
  • Add extra chili flakes for more heat if desired.
  • This dish pairs well with a side of rice or a green salad.
