Chef's Note & Story

To cook vegetables on stove-top and broil chicken, cook vegetables in dressing mixture in covered 12-inch skillet over medium-low heat 15 to 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Place chicken on broiler pan; broil 4 to 6 inches from heat 12 to 16 minutes, turning once and brushing with reserved dressing mixture from skillet once or twice.
