In a large skillet with a lid, preferably non-stick, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chicken breasts and brown for 4 minutes.&nbsp;

Flip over and brown for another 4 minutes.

Add the chicken broth, reduce to medium-low, put the lid on the skillet and allow to simmer for 5-8 minutes. NOTE: Chicken should register 160-165 degrees (it will continue to cook when removed from heat).&nbsp;

Remove the chicken from the skillet and allow it to rest for 3 minutes.
