Here is why I LOVE this recipe…
It’s an awesome way to eat tons of yummy veggies!
This really isn’t a recipe, but here is how I make it…
Prepare and marinate chicken before hand.
If I have time, I use my yummy marinade. If I don’t have time, I use my easy marinade. When Kev gets home, I have him grill it. Love that!
Cut up any veggies you want to use.
I usually use the following: broccoli or broccoli slaw, carrots, celery, green peas, zucchini, bell peppers, onions, green beans, sugar snap peas, and whatever else I have on hand. You could even use little corn cob thingys or water chestnuts. Whatever.
Throw all the “harder” veggies into a wok or big ‘ol electric frying pan (preheated with 1-2 T. Olive Oil).
Cook them for a little while (maybe 5-7 minutes), then add a little seasoning salt and lite soy sauce to taste.
Then add any softer veggies like broccoli slaw, green peas, corn, etc.
Btw, I really love broccoli slaw…lots of nutrition without a lot of work!
After I added the broccoli slaw…
Cook and stir occasionally for 5-10 more minutes depending on how crunchy you like your veggies.
There is no “right” or “wrong”, it’s just personal preference. I like mine on the crunchier side. You can also add more seasoning salt or soy sauce if needed.
Serve with quinoa or brown rice…

Serve with grilled chicken on the side or cut up and mixed in!
Here’s my plate…
Kev and I both love this meal, but I must say my kids are not big fans. They don’t love rice or quinoa too much and they prefer their veggies not all mixed together. They love the chicken and fruit though. I always get complaints when we have this, but I remind them that their mom loves them and wants them to be healthy! 😉
That is all…easy, healthy, and yummy! Love it!
