Ingredients
- 1 ½ lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts, sliced into strips
- 3 bell peppers red, yellow, green, sliced
- 1 large red onion sliced
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tsp chili powder
- 1 tsp cumin
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp onion powder
- ½ tsp salt
- ¼ tsp black pepper
- 2 cups cooked rice white, brown, or cauliflower
- 1 lime cut into wedges
- Fresh cilantro chopped (optional)
Instructions
- In a large bowl, toss the chicken strips with olive oil, chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Let it sit while you prep the veggies.
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until cooked through and lightly browned. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add a splash more oil if needed. Toss in the bell peppers and onion. Cook for 5-6 minutes, stirring often, until they’re slightly tender but still crisp.
- Divide the rice among 4 meal prep containers. Top each with equal portions of chicken and sautéed veggies. Squeeze fresh lime over the top and sprinkle with cilantro if you like.
