Instructions
 

Step 1: Cook the Chicken

  • In a large skillet or Dutch oven, heat olive oil over medium heat.
  • Add the diced chicken and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove chicken from the skillet and set aside.

Step 5: Add Chicken and Cheese

  • Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and stir to combine.
  • Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese on top, then cover and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
