Notes
I use boneless, skinless chicken breasts but you could sub boneless, skinless chicken thighs if you prefer. You may just need to increase the cooking time until they reach an internal temperature of 165.If you have really big chicken breasts, you can do just 2-3 and then slice them after they’ve cooked and rested, to stretch them out to 4 people.I love this mix of vegetables, but you could certainly switch some out to use your family’s favorites. Green beans, zucchini and tomatoes would also work great here.You can serve this as-is or with rice, quinoa, couscous or another pasta.Check the post above for meal prep tips.
