Tips:

For a flavorful and juicy chicken, use bone-in, skin-on chicken breasts or thighs.
To achieve a crispy skin, pat the chicken dry before cooking and season it generously with salt and pepper.
Use a heavy-bottomed skillet or Dutch oven for even heat distribution.
Start by searing the chicken in hot oil until golden brown. This will help lock in the juices and prevent the chicken from drying out.
Reduce the heat to medium-low and continue cooking the chicken until it is cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C) for chicken breasts and 175°F (80°C) for chicken thighs.
Add your favorite vegetables to the skillet or Dutch oven during the last few minutes of cooking. This will help them soften and absorb the delicious flavors from the chicken and sauce.
Serve the Italian chicken sauté immediately with your favorite sides, such as pasta, rice, or roasted vegetables.

Conclusion:

Italian chicken sauté is a quick and easy weeknight meal that is packed with flavor. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a delicious and satisfying dish that the whole family will love. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy dinner idea, give Italian chicken sauté a try.
