Ingredients

Scale

2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs
3 large bell peppers, chopped into 1-inch pieces (mixed colors preferred)
4 cups low-sodium chicken broth (or vegetable broth)
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil (or avocado oil)
1 medium onion, diced
2 stalks celery, chopped

1 tablespoon Italian seasoning (or oregano, basil, and thyme blend)
1 teaspoon sea salt
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Instructions
