Ingredients

1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
2 Tablespoons olive oil
1 Tablespoon butter
1 teaspoon minced garlic

Instructions

Slice a pocket into each chicken breast without cutting all the way through the meat.

Flip the chicken breasts to sear the second side and add the chicken broth. Cover the pan and cook until the chicken is fully cooked.
Remove the toothpicks (if used), slice and serve with whole grain rice or pasta.
