Description

A vibrant and satisfying high-protein meal featuring juicy marinated chicken and fresh vegetables, topped with a creamy yogurt dressing.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb Lean Chicken Breast
  • 2 Bell Peppers, chopped
  • 1 Red Onion, chopped
  • 1 cup Greek Yogurt
  • 2 tbsp Olive Oil
  • 1 tsp Garlic Powder
  • 1 tsp Cumin
  • 1 tsp Paprika
  • Salt and Pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Marinate the Chicken: In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, garlic powder, cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper. Coat the chicken breast and let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.
  2. Prep Your Veggies: While the chicken marinates, chop your bell peppers and onions into bite-sized pieces.
  3. Cook the Chicken: Heat a grill pan over medium heat. Add the marinated chicken and cook for 6-7 minutes on each side until fully cooked. Let it rest before slicing.
  4. Sauté the Vegetables: In the same pan, toss in your chopped veggies. Sauté for 5-6 minutes or until they become tender yet retain some crunch.
  5. Plate Your Dish: Serve sliced chicken over the sautéed vegetables. Add a dollop of Greek yogurt on top and garnish with fresh herbs if desired.

Notes

Ensure the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F to ensure it’s safe to eat. For meal prep, you can marinate the chicken overnight.
