  • Place chicken in a resealable plastic bag with flour, salt, and pepper. Seal the bag and shake to coat. Remove chicken from the bag, shaking off excess flour.
  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Brown chicken on each side until golden, about 5 minutes. Remove from skillet and set aside.
  • Combine sherry, broth, garlic, and a squeeze of lemon in the same skillet and bring to a boil. Return chicken to skillet, reduce heat to low, and simmer until chicken is cooked through and no longer pink inside, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • In the meantime, sauté carrots and zucchini in a separate medium skillet until they are tender. Add to simmering chicken and sauce and heat through before serving.
