Instructions

Wash and chop all vegetables. Dice the chicken and season with salt, pepper, and smoked paprika.
Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook chicken until golden and fully cooked. Remove and set aside.
In the same skillet, add remaining olive oil. Sauté garlic for 30 seconds, then add zucchini, broccoli, and bell peppers. Cook 5–6 minutes until tender-crisp.
Return chicken to the skillet. Toss and cook 2 more minutes.
Sprinkle with chili flakes and parsley. Adjust seasoning to taste. Serve warm.

Swap vegetables seasonally for variety. Use different proteins like turkey, beef, or tofu. Store in airtight containers up to 4 days. Reheat in microwave or skillet. Add a squeeze of lemon for extra flavor before serving.
