Recipe Introduction

From member Blessed: A great way to get some excellent vegetables and increase that water intake!

List of Ingredients

4 chicken breasts
3 zucchini, halved lengthwise and thinly sliced
1 small onion
1 red or yellow bell pepper
1-15 oz can no-salt diced tomatoes
2-8 oz cans no-salt tomato sauce
1-2 tbsp minced garlic
1/2-1 tsp crushed red peppers (like you put on pizza)
1 tsp black pepper
2 tbsp Italian herbs
cooked rice


Recipe

Place chicken breasts in a frying pan in about 1/4 inch of water. Bring to a boil and begin steaming chicken breasts. Cook chicken breasts so that outsides turn white. Coarsely chop onions and bell pepper. Add onion, bell pepper, and remaining ingredients except zucchini and rice to pan. Reduce heat to medium, cover and allow to cook about 10 minutes at a good simmer, watching liquid so it doesn't all cook out. Add zucchini to pan and cook another 7-10 minutes or until tender but not mushy.

Test chicken for doneness. Remove chicken breasts and portion out required amount. Portion out rice, spoon tomato/zucchini sauce over rice and top with chicken.

Note: The longer you keep this dish the more the heat increases in it. If you are making portions for leftovers, use less red pepper.
