Description

A simple yet flavorful dish featuring tender chicken, vibrant zucchini, and the warm spice of paprika, perfect for a weeknight meal.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 2 medium zucchinis, sliced
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp onion powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional: fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, toss chicken pieces with paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
  2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  3. Add the seasoned chicken to the skillet and cook until browned on all sides and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
  4. Add the sliced zucchini to the skillet with the chicken.
  5. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the zucchini is tender-crisp, about 5-7 minutes.
  6. Season with additional salt and pepper if needed.
  7. Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley if desired.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, you can add a pinch of cayenne pepper for a little heat.
  • Ensure the chicken is cooked through to a safe internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
  • Don’t overcook the zucchini; it should still have a slight bite.
