For an extra layer of flavor, marinate the chicken breasts in Italian dressing for at least 30 minutes before cooking. If you prefer a spicier dish, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the sauce. Feel free to substitute other vegetables for the broccoli, such as bell peppers, zucchini, or spinach. To make this dish even richer, stir in a dollop of pesto just before serving. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
