Ingredients

  • 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts, , cut into bite sized pieces

  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided

Instructions

  • In a small bowl, combine oregano, basil, parsley, salt, and pepper. Sprinkle evenly over chicken pieces. Toss to coat.
  • In a large skillet over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons butter.
