Quick 15 Minute Stir-Fry Chicken and Veggies
Description
The Quick 15 Minute Stir-Fry Chicken and Veggies features bite-sized slices of chicken breast cooked in olive oil with an assortment of fresh vegetables including broccoli florets, sliced zucchini, bell pepper, and yellow onion. Minced garlic and Italian seasoning infuse the dish with aromatic herbal notes. Cooking over medium-high heat allows the chicken to brown while the vegetables soften but retain some firmness and texture.
The natural flavors of the vegetables blend with the seasoned chicken, resulting in a straightforward protein-and-veggie main course. Salt and black pepper adjust the seasoning balance. This dish can be enjoyed on its own as a lighter entrée or paired with rice, pasta, or toasted bread to round out a meal.
