Equipment

  • Medium-sized skillet
  • Sharp knife
  • Cutting Board
  • Measuring Cups and Spoons
  • Wooden spatula
  • Mixing bowls

Ingredients
  

  • 2 medium boneless skinless chicken breasts (about 1 pound)
  • 2 teaspoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
  • 1 cup zucchini thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes halved
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley chopped (optional, for garnish)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Chicken

  • Trim any excess fat from the chicken breasts. Slice them into thinner fillets if needed to ensure even cooking. Season both sides with thyme, oregano, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.

Heat the Skillet

  • In a medium-sized skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Once the oil is warm, add the chicken fillets. Sear for about 3 minutes on each side until lightly golden.

Add the Broth and Vegetables

  • Pour the chicken broth into the skillet. Add the zucchini slices and cherry tomatoes around the chicken. Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover the skillet, and let it simmer for 12-15 minutes.

Check for Doneness

  • Ensure the chicken is cooked through by checking that the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). The vegetables should be tender but not mushy.

Garnish and Serve

  • Transfer the chicken and vegetables to a plate. Sprinkle with fresh parsley for a burst of flavor and color. Serve immediately and enjoy.

Notes

1. Gallbladder-Friendly Tips: Always use low-fat ingredients and avoid frying or adding heavy sauces. This keeps the recipe gentle on the digestive system.
2. Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat gently to maintain the texture of the chicken and vegetables.
3. Substitutions: You can replace zucchini with yellow squash or green beans for variety.
