    You guyyyys! I was so happy to see that a number of you asked for my Catalina Chicken recipe right after I shared my recipe for Catalina Dressing! 

    I hope that you will love it as much as we do, and that it will become your go-to meal when you need something suuuuuper quick. After all, this recipe comes together in around 30 minutes!

    WHAT INGREDIENTS DO I NEED TO MAKE CATALINA CHICKEN?

    As stated, this is a quick chicken breast recipe, perfect for a dinner prepared with very little ingredients.

    • Chicken Breasts
    • Broccoli
    • Catalina Dressing
    • Soy Sauce
    • Seasonings
    • Cashews are optional, but also fabulous!

    HOW DO YOU MAKE CATALINA CHICKEN?

    1. We will start with cooking the chicken breasts in a large nonstick skillet.
    2. Once chicken is cooked through, we will set it aside, and continue with the broccoli.
    3. Add broccoli to the same skillet with a little bit of water; cover and steam for 3 to 4 minutes, or until crisp-tender. Not mushy!
    4. We will then add our chicken back into the skillet, and stir in the catalina dressing, soy sauce, seasonings, and continue to cook for 5 minutes.
    5. To serve, you can either add the chicken and broccoli over a bed of rice, OR serve it as is, with a sprinkle of cashews on top.
    6. Optionally, for a bit more flavor, you can marinade the chicken together with some catalina dressing for about 15 minutes in the fridge, before cooking.

    That’s it!

    Literally, 25 minutes to cook, and maybe 5 minutes to cut up the broccoli florets. My laziness makes me reach for the broccoli florets bag at the grocery store…  #EasyDoesIt
