Super Fast Chicken and Broccoli Skillet

Chicken Broccoli and Stuff

Don't know what to call this, because it kinda changes with what I have in the fridge each time. This is one that I have to make when my hubbie isn't home because of the first ingredient in the title. He swears he is allergic to the bird!! Weirdo! But his lose, it is super yummy and super fast!

Ingredients:
2 chicken breast cut into bite size pieces (use what ever kind you have: boiled, grilled, roasted truly
     doesn't matter)
1/2 to 1 med onion cut in half and sliced. Depends on how much you like onion.
1 cup frozen broccoli or fresh (you can use more, or you can use less. I eyeball mine when I throw it in)
1/2 a package of Ranch dressing mix (the powdered kind) Leave it in powder form. Or if you buy
   it in bulk like I do about 3 tbsp.
1 to 2 tbsp butter
3 tbsp water (just enough to keep veggies from sticking and dryin out)

Now here are the list of ingredients you can use if you have them or not if you don't.
chopped asparagus
chopped green peppers
chopped celery

I have had each of these thrown in the mix and it is super yummy. Just add what you have and don't stress out about what you don't.

Step 1 - melt butter in large skillet and put broccoli if it is frozen in microwave for a couple min to unthaw it a little. Speeds things up and gets rid of some extra water. If your broccoli is fresh add it with step 2 instead

Step 2 - once skillet is warm add veggies that are raw and a little water, cover and let cook for 3 to 4 min. keep an eye on them so they don't get too done! Should still be sorta crisp.

Step 3 - add chicken and broccoli if it was the frozen kind. Heat chicken through.

Step 4 -  sprinkle with about 1/2 the ranch stir, and then add the rest of the ranch.

Step 5 - EAT! Enjoy!

As you can tell I like to wing-it when I cook. We don't live where it is really convienent to jump in the car and get something if you forgot it, or are out. So we have interesting meals sometimes! This recipe is adjustable and very very yummy.  You can add more or less of everything in it and make it just to your tastebuds satisfaction. I often add more ranch if the kids are eating because it seems to hide the broccoli taste? What ever works!

Enjoy!
