Ingredients
1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs, cut into cubes
2 tablespoons olive oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
1/4 cup breadcrumbs (preferably panko)
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions
