This hen and peppers recipe is so flexible. Serve it in a tortilla, over rice, or maybe just like it is for the carb-counter for your circle of relatives. I normally make extras and freeze this for a quick healthy meal whilst i'm short on time at some stage in the week.
Ingredients
- 1 red bell pepper sliced
- 1 green bell pepper sliced
- 1 yellow bell pepper sliced
- 1 yellow onion sliced
- 4 chicken breasts bonesless, skinless
- 2 large carrots peeled and sliced
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- salt to taste
- pepper to taste
- Pepper flakes Optional
- 2 TBL Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Instructions
- Grill chicken until it is done or registers 165°F with a meat thermometer. If you don't want to grill the chicken, you can broil it in the oven.
- Heat a large skillet with 2 Tbsp of EVOO and add the carrots and onions. Stir and let cook for 3 minutes.
- Add all the peppers. Mix and cover pan for about 3 minutes. This allows them to sweat a bit and soften them faster
- Add the minced garlic and stir again.
- Cover and let them cook for 2 more minutes if you prefer your veggies to have a little bite to them.
- Top vegetables with grilled chicken and serve over brown rice, quinoa or pasta.
