Instructions
1
Heat a stove top pan to medium heat, while the pan is heating season the chicken
breast on both sides, using black pepper and garlic powder.
2
Once the pan is hot, add 1/2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil to the pan.
3
Place the chicken immediately in the pan, leave it there on medium heat for 2
minutes, then flip to the other side and cook for an additional 2 minutes. Both
sides should start to become golden brown, but the center will still look
uncooked if not golden, give each side another minute your pan wasn’t hot
enough. Then turn the heat to low and cover the chicken with a lid.
4
Let it cook for about 9 minutes, then flip and cover again for an additional 9
minutes. After 9 minutes on each side covered, the chicken should be done. But
this does depend on the size of the chicken breast these times are based on 9 oz
breasts.
My rule of thumb is, once covered, cook the chicken for 1 minute per ounce per
side, I find that this delivers a perfect juicy chicken breast every time.
It is always best to check the internal temperature of chicken before serving.
5
While the chicken is cooking, slice and dice your onion, peppers, scallions, and
mushrooms.
6
Once the chicken is done, remove the chicken from the pan, leaving the juice
from the chicken in the pan.
7
Now add your diced yellow onion and sliced peppers to the pan. Cook them in the
chicken juice stirring for about 3 minutes.
8
Then add the gnocchi and mushrooms to the pan. Stir everything together for 1-2
minutes, ensuring the the gnocchi has an even coating of the sauace around each
gnocchi. Then cover with a lid and cook for 5 minutes. Stopping to toss
everything together half way thru.
9
While the gnocchi is cooking shred your chicken breast with a fork and knife.
After the gnocchi has cooked for 5 minutes. Add the chicken and ¾ cup of tomato
sauce to the pan. Toss everything together cooking for an additional 1-2
minutes, just enough to heat the sauce thru. Season with additional black pepper
and garlic powder.
10
Serve and enjoy or portion out into your meal prep containers.
