Description
A savory and healthy dish combining tender chicken breast with cabbage, garlic, and a blend of seasonings. Perfect for a quick and wholesome meal.
Ingredients
2 chicken breasts, boneless and skinless, cut into bite-sized pieces
4 cups cabbage, shredded
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 onion, chopped
1 bell pepper, sliced
1 tablespoon soy sauce (or coconut aminos for gluten-free)
1 teaspoon ground paprika
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 tablespoon lemon juice (optional)
Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken pieces and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until browned and fully cooked through.
- Add the chopped onion, garlic, and bell pepper to the skillet. Cook for another 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Add the shredded cabbage to the pan and stir well to combine. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until the cabbage begins to soften but still retains some crunch.
- Stir in the soy sauce (or coconut aminos), paprika, salt, and black pepper. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until everything is well mixed and heated through.
- If desired, drizzle with lemon juice for an added burst of flavor and garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
Notes
For a gluten-free version, substitute soy sauce with coconut aminos.
Add other vegetables like carrots, zucchini, or mushrooms for variation.
Serve with a side of quinoa, brown rice, or cauliflower rice for a more filling meal.
