Being a student at NYU requires one to not only dress well but be extremely efficient with their time. Our days are fast paced and as they say time is money. However, you shouldn’t have to give up good food or eat out everyday. This 30 minute recipe is not only quick and easy but delicious.

You will need: 

  • 3 tablespoon of olive oil
  • 1¼ pounds of boneless, skinless chicken breasts

  • 1 14 oz can of low sodium chicken broth
  • 1 cup of heavy cream

  • Salt and pepper
Instructions
  1. Start by cutting chicken breasts into 1 inch pieces. Season with ½ a teaspoon of kosher salt and a few turns of pepper.
  2. Brown chicken in olive oil over medium high heat.

  6. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce to a simmer.
