{NEW} Chicken Caprese Skillet🌱🍅

This recipe is VERY simple with only a few minutes of hands-on time, and it always comes out delicious! Did I mention, just one pan to clean?!

If you’re anything like me, then you probably eat chicken a few times each week…so it’s essential to have an abundance of FABULOUS recipes.

I posted this idea on the CFC Instagram page several months ago, and it has received many comments that it turned out extremely well!

Definitely a dinner idea you’ll want to keep in your arsenal! Just add a roasted vegetable such as green beans, or broccoli, maybe some quinoa…and you’re set!
