1 cup of Bellhaven sauce (store-bought or homemade)
2 cups of mixed vegetables (frozen or fresh, such as peas, carrots, and corn)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Lightly season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides.
In a large oven-safe skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown.
Pour the Bellhaven sauce evenly over the browned chicken in the skillet.
Scatter the mixed vegetables around the chicken in the skillet and stir gently to combine.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C) and the vegetables are tender.
Once cooked, remove the skillet from the oven and let it sit for 5 minutes before serving.
