Remember those days when “healthy dishes with chicken breast” meant bland, boring food? Like steamed chicken and plain broccoli, a culinary snooze-fest. Well, ditch those dusty memories because we’re about to flip the script on healthy chicken.

Peppers and chicken—two ingredients that always seem to find their way into my kitchen. Maybe it’s because they’re both incredibly versatile or maybe it’s because they remind me of so many home-cooked meals from my childhood.

I really enjoy adding loads of vegetables into my chicken dishes. Some of my favorites are broccoli, spinach, tomatoes, green beans, zucchini, and eggplant.
Chicken is great baked, sautéed, fried, and on the grill. For more flavor use a marinade like honey, BBQ, mustard, Italian dressing, or balsamic dressing to take the dish to the next level.
