It’s fast enough for chaotic evenings, sturdy enough for meal prep, and satisfying enough whenever you want something like takeout that is satisfying, balanced, and easy to throw together.
Real ingredients, real taste, zero guilt. Because midlife deserves meals that don’t suck.
INGREDIENTS
1-2 lb. chicken breasts, cubed
1 zucchini, sliced and quartered
1 squash, sliced and quartered
1 onion, sliced then halved
Optional Veggies: broccoli florets and/or cauliflower florets, carrots (sliced)
1 lb baby potatoes OR 2 sweet potatoes, sliced and then quartered
Extra virgin olive oil spray
2 tbsp Hippy All-Purpose Seasoning
1 tbsp garlic powder
Avocado, sliced, for serving (optional)
Homemade Teriyaki Sauce
¼ cup coconut aminos
1 tsp garlic powder
1 clove garlic, minced
1 tsp ginger, ground or freshly grated
1 tsp monk fruit sweetener
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil (EVOO)
If you want a thicker sauce, add 1 tbsp cornstarch
DIRECTIONS
Preheat skillet to med-high, add some EVOO and the minced garlic, cooking until it becomes fragrant.
Make the Homemade Teriyaki Sauce in a small bowl and set aside
Add the cubed chicken to the skillet and cook until it is no longer pink. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
Add a little more EVOO to the skillet and add the veggies and potatoes. Sprinkle with the seasonings and stir to coat and combine. Turn the temperature down to med-low and cover, cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, to allow the potatoes to soften.
Add the chicken back to the skillet, then add the sauce and stir well to combine, ensuring all the chicken is coated with the sauce.
Cover and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. You want to make sure the potatoes are soft. Continue to cook until the potatoes reach your desired tenderness.
Serve with sliced avocado, if desired.
TIP: If you want a thicker sauce, add 1 tbsp cornstarch
TIP 2: If you want some added heat, add some crushed red pepper
