Hi, welcome to solsarin site, in this post we want to talk about“healthy chicken and vegetable recipes”,
stay with us.
Chicken is rich in an array of important nutrients and can be an excellent addition to a healthy, well-rounded diet.
Given that Chicken is low in calories but high in protein, it may be especially beneficial for weight loss, if that’s a goal for you.
Studies show that increasing your intake of protein may enhance feelings of fullness, increase weight loss, and help maintain lean body mass.
When paired with resistance training, protein can also help promote muscle growth.
What’s more, protein is involved in calcium metabolism and important for optimizing bone health.
1. To make the Chicken Bites and Vegetable Skillet: In a large bowl add the chicken bites and season with salt and pepper. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil and cajun seasoning and toss until coated.
2. Heat a large skillet over medium heat with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Add seasoned chicken bites and cook for about 5-7 minutes until the chicken is cooked through. Remove to a plate and set aside
3. In the same skillet, stir fry the onion (add a little olive oil if needed) for 2 minutes, then add broccoli, zucchini, and bell pepper. Season with Cajun seasoning and cook on medium until vegetables are crisp-tender.
4. Deglaze with chicken stock, then add the cooked chicken bites back to the skillet and mix to combine. Garnish with red chili pepper flakes and fresh parsley if desired and serve the chicken bites and vegetables immediately. Enjoy!
What goes with this easy skillet meal? I do like to serve with rice or noodles, as I mentioned earlier, but there are tons of great sides in addition to those!
Sheet Pan Chicken and Rainbow Veggies. Healthy one-pan meal with broccoli, sweet potatoes and zucchini, baked with lemon and Parmesan. Quick and delicious!
Place a rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. For easy cleanup, line a large, rimmed baking sheet with foil. Lightly coat the foil with nonstick spray.
Meanwhile, in the bowl that you used previously for the sweet potatoes, place the chicken, broccoli, bell pepper, zucchini, and yellow squash. Drizzle with the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil. Add the lemon zest and juice, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, and remaining 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Toss to coat.
Transfer the chicken and vegetable mixture to the sheet pan with the sweet potatoes, using a spatula to spread everything into an fairly even layer and stirring it a bit if needed.
Return to the sheet pan to the oven and bake for 15 to 20 additional minutes, stirring once halfway through, until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink in the middle and the vegetables are tender but not mushy. (They won’t be browned and caramelized but will be delicious to eat.) Sprinkle with Parmesan. Serve hot.
A sheet pan, a cutting board, and a knife. That’s all you need to make this always-good, always-loved easy dinner tonight! As busy moms and registered dietitians, we love healthy meals that are quick, easy, and that everyone will eat and enjoy!
Our Sheet-Pan Balsamic Chicken and Veggies is proof that eating healthy can be easy and delicious. You can have everything prepped and ready for roasting in less than 20 minutes. And, for an even easier weeknight meal, you can prep the ingredients up to the point of cooking by pre-chopping the veggies and making the marinade ahead of time. These two quick steps can be done up to 3 days in advance.
Cook your chicken so it’s moist with a crispy skin and serve with mixed greens and a creamy tarragon sauce
Fry the chicken in the oil in a wide pan for 5 mins on each side. Throw in the potatoes and stir to coat. Pour over the chicken stock, cover and simmer for 10 mins until the potatoes are almost cooked through.
Remove the lid and turn the heat to high. Boil the stock down until it just coats the bottom of the pan. Scatter the vegetables into the pan, cover again and cook the veg for about 3 mins.
Stir in the crème fraîche to make a creamy sauce, season with pepper and salt, if you want, then add the tarragon. Serve straight from the pan.
