Cooking Directions for Single Meal

  1. Cut the chicken breasts into bite-size pieces.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the olive oil, white cooking win, chicken stock, spicy mustard, and Italian seasoning. Add a pinch of salt and pepper.
  3. Place the chicken pieces into the sauce and let marinate in the fridge for 30 minutes, or overnight if possible.
  4. In a large skillet over high heat, sear both sides of the chicken pieces for 2 to 3 minutes. Pour about 1 cup of the marinade into the skillet with the chicken, and discard the remainder.
