  • 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.
