Chicken and Summer Squash

Well I got to say.  When I was preparing this recipe I didn't have high hopes.  The picture looked great but it just seemed that there wasn't much to it for seasoning and maybe this would end up being a flop and taste kind of bland.

I was soooooo wrong.  This meal was excellent and good for you!  The chicken was juicy and flavorful.  The veggies turned out perfectly as well. 

And sooooo easy to boot! What more could you ask for!  Even Renae gobbled it up!  I teamed it up with some Stove Top Stuffing and the meal was complete.

I found this recipe here on AllRecipes.com or see below:

Ingredients

• 4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
• 3/4 pound yellow squash, sliced
• 3/4 pound zucchinis, sliced
• 1 medium tomato - peeled, seeded and chopped

Directions

1. In a large nonstick skillet, melt butter in the oil over medium high heat. Season chicken with half of the salt and half of the pepper, and add it to skillet. Cook until lightly browned, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to large plate or platter, and cover to keep warm.
2. Pour off fat from skillet, and add squash, zucchini, and tomato. Season with remaining salt and pepper. Cook and stir over medium-high heat until squash is slightly softened, about 3 minutes. Reduce heat, and return chicken to skillet. Cover partially. Cook until squash is soft, and chicken is white throughout but still juicy, about 5 minutes longer.
3. Transfer chicken to platter, and cover with foil to keep warm. Raise heat to high. Cook vegetable mixture, stirring often, until almost all of the liquid has evaporated, about 2 minutes. Arrange vegetables around chicken, and serve.
