Description
Easy chicken breast with vegetables in a nonstick skillet.
Ingredients
- 1 lb cooked chicken breast slices
- 4 cups of mixed power greens
- 1 orange pepper chopped
- 1 cup of Mexican shredded cheese
- 1 tbsp Olive Oil (Affiliate Link)
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 1 tsp granulated garlic
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp pepper
Instructions
- First, gather all the ingredients from the fridge and the pantry (Affiliate Link) and place them in one place near a cutting board (Affiliate Link).
- Cut up the orange pepper into regular-sized chopped pieces. Fresh veggies like peppers are a great addition to a quick dinner meal.
- Measure out the paprika and garlic ingredients, as well as the salt and pepper and olive oil (Affiliate Link). Measuring these out beforehand will make it easier to use when you are ready for them.
- Sort them in small containers to easily and quickly add them to the skillet when cooking this recipe.
- Heat up the nonstick skillet for a few minutes.
- Then, add the oil and cook for a minute or two.
- Add the cooked chicken and peppers. Saute for two minutes.
- Then add half of the smoked paprika, granulated garlic, salt, and pepper. Mix them in with the peppers and chicken. If your chicken is already salted, you can omit the salt—Cook for 2-3 minutes.
- Add the mixed power greens and the rest of the smoked paprika, granulated garlic, salt, and pepper. Cover with a lid and cook until the greens are wilted. About 2-3 minutes.
- Add the Mexican melted cheese to the top of the greens and add the lid for about 2 minutes or until the cheese melts.
- Serve warm!
Notes
