A 30 minute one skillet meal that is full of amazing flavor and veggies! The thai peanut sauce glazes the chicken perfectly and this will be a hit for dinner!

I love one skillet meals. It sure has been busy around our house the last few weeks. Between scouts, basketball games, practices, piano lessons, and a busy toddler, we always seem like we are on the go! The great thing about this meal is that it was ready in just 30 minutes.
I still love to have a delicious and hearty meal for my family when we are so busy. This meal is quick and easy and the flavor is incredible!

I especially LOVE the thai peanut glaze on this chicken. It thickens up and coats the chicken perfectly adding such amazing flavor. But how can you go wrong with a soy sauce, peanut, garlic, lime glaze that coats the chicken perfectly? You just can’t. My mind was seriously blown with with the first bite!
We all loved this meal and I know that your family will too!
