This is the kind of meal you throw together on a Tuesday night when the fridge is stocked but your patience isn’t.

Cubed chicken breast hits a hot skillet with garlic and onion, followed by zucchini and red bell pepper that stay snappy and bright.

Fresh tomatoes and Italian seasoning tie everything together without drowning the vegetables in sauce.

From cutting board to table in 25 minutes, it’s honest, no-fuss cooking that actually fills you up.

Pro Tips

  • Cut your chicken and veggies into similar-sized pieces so everything cooks evenly.
  • Keep the heat at medium-high and stir constantly. You want a sear on the chicken, not a steam bath.
  • Toss in a handful of fresh basil right before serving if you’ve got it. It wakes the whole dish up.
