1) Prepare the Chicken
Wash and pat dry the chicken. Chop the chicken into small 1 inch pieces. Season with a dash of sea salt, black pepper and garlic powder.
Add a drizzle of olive oil to a skillet over medium high heat. Sauté the chicken for a few minutes until fully cooked through (165°F internal temp). Once cooked, let cool and then roughly chop the chicken into smaller pieces. Set aside.
