Right now, I am all about simplifying, so I have been trying some one-skillet meals. This one combines chicken with loads of fresh vegetables. You can always make it your own by changing the chicken to beef, sausage, tofu, or whichever protein you have on hand at the moment. You can also change out the veggies for the ones you prefer.
Ingredients:
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (cubed and sauteed)
2 Tbsp fresh, chopped basil
1 Tbsp minced garlic
8 button mushrooms, sliced
1 tsp oregano
1 tsp parsley
1 fresh tomato, chopped
2 handfuls fresh spinach
1/2 red onion, chopped
1 Tbsp balsamic vinegar
1 cup fresh corn
1 cup black beans (cooked)
2 Tbsp olive oil
Directions:
Over medium heat, add 1 Tbsp olive oil and saute the onion for about 1-2 minutes. Add garlic and saute for about 1 more minute. Add the mushrooms and saute for ~5-7 minutes. Add a dash of salt and pepper to taste here if you wish.
Once the onions, garlic, and mushrooms are cooked, add 1 Tbsp olive oil and 1 Tbsp balsamic vinegar, along with the tomatoes, corn, and black beans. Saute for ~1-2 minutes. Add in the parsley and oregano and stir for ~1minute.
Lastly, add the cooked chicken and spinach to the skillet and saute with all of the vegetables for ~2 minutes. Add a dash more of salt and pepper to taste here if you wish.
Serve hot and garnish with fresh basil. Enjoy! :)
