Cooking Instructions

1

Prepare the Chicken

In a large skillet, heat cooking oil over medium heat. Add the chicken breast, season with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Cook until the chicken is no longer pink in the center, about 6-8 minutes. Remove from skillet and dice into bite-sized pieces.

2

Sauté Vegetables

In the same skillet, add butter. Once melted, add the diced bell peppers, mushrooms, and frozen peas. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender.

3

Make the Sauce

Sprinkle the flour over the sautéed vegetables and stir well to combine. Gradually pour in the chicken broth while stirring continuously to avoid lumps. Cook for about 3-5 minutes until the sauce thickens.

4

Combine Ingredients

Stir in the heavy cream, diced chicken, and paprika. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until heated through. Adjust seasoning if necessary.

5

Serve

Serve hot over rice, pasta, or toast.
