Ingredients:

2 tbsp. olive oil

1 lb. boneless skinless chicken breast, cut into bite size chunks

1 ½ cups chicken broth

1 cup half and half

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon black pepper

¼ teaspoon garlic powder

Heat the oil in a large pot over medium high heat. Add the chicken and season with 1 teaspoon cajun seasoning. Cook until the chicken is cooked throughout and no longer pink in the center. Add the garlic and continue cooking for 1 minute.
