Ingredients
2 boneless skinless chicken breasts , halved (about 1 lb)
0.5 tsp salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tbsp butter
1 tbsp vegetable oil
0.75 lb sliced summer squash (yellow squash)
0.75 lb medium zucchini , sliced
1 medium tomatoes , peeled, seeded, and chopped


Directions
1 In large nonstick skillet, combine butter and oil, heat over medium-high until butter melts.
