Ingredients
  

For the Chicken
  • 1 ½ pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts, thighs, or a combination

Method
 

  1. Begin by cutting the chicken into bite-sized pieces and seasoning with salt and pepper.
  2. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken pieces and cook until golden brown and cooked through, about 10-12 minutes.
