: 25 minutes
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts cut into bite-size pieces
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 medium onion sliced
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 red bell pepper sliced
- 1 medium zucchini sliced
- 1 cup no-salt-added chicken broth
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 lemon zested and juiced
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley chopped
Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and brown the chicken for 5 to 7 minutes, turning so the pieces color evenly.
Add the onion, garlic, bell pepper, and zucchini and cook for 5 minutes, stirring until the vegetables begin to soften.
Pour in the no-salt-added chicken broth, add the oregano and black pepper, and simmer for 10 to 12 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce reduces slightly.
Stir in the lemon zest, lemon juice, and parsley, then serve while hot.
