Heat a medium skillet with oil, add the chicken cubes and cook for 2-3 minutes.
Add in the seasonings; paprika, Italian seasonings, garlic powder, pepper and salt. Mix it, transfer the chicken pieces to a plate.
To the same skillet add the butter. Once the butter has melted, add the garlic and bell peppers. Saute for about a minute and then add the mushrooms. Continue cooking for a couple more minutes.
Stir the chicken back into the skillet along with the chicken juice released while resting the chicken. Cook for 4-5 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and no more moisture left in the pan.
Garnish the mushroom chicken bites with fresh parsley and serve.
Notes
Feel free to add other veggies if you like. Some recommendations are zucchini, carrots, broccoli, cauliflower, onions, peas, and green beans.
Cremini mushrooms can be used in place of white mushrooms.
If your mushrooms have dirt on them, simply give them a brush. Avoid washing and soaking mushrooms as they’ll get waterlogged.
Cut your chicken thighs into similar-sized pieces so that they cook evenly.
Cook the chicken in a single layer and don’t overcrowd the pan. Cook in two batches if needed.
