Check out this easy, delicious meal prep that cuts out a lot of cooking time. The main secret: buy a whole roasted chicken from your local grocer instead of cooking the chicken yourself. None of this is measured exactly because, who has time to measure?
Ingredients:
- One roasted, seasoned chicken from your local grocer
- 4-5 sweet peppers (green, yellow, red, orange)
- Large handful of fresh cut green beans
- Your favorite seasonings (I do a lot of garlic and pepper)
- Olive oil
- Rice (proportion your desired amount)
- Optional: pineapple (canned or fresh)
Steps:
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees
- Toss your chopped peppers and green beans in a large bowl with olive oil and your choices of seasoning
- Once oven is ready, cook vegetables for about 15 minutes. Then broil for a roasted finish for additional 5-7 minutes
- While vegetables are cooking, begin preparing the rice. Season with salt and butter.
- Once vegetables and rice are complete, combine desired amounts into a bowl and add chicken. If you want to add pineapple you can either just add it to the finished product or cook it in the oven with the vegetables.
- Add your choice of sauce: plum sauce, hot sauce, soy sauce, etc.
- Portion out your leftovers to eat for lunch during the week (you can use a mason jar or Tupperware)
- Enjoy!
