INGREDIENTS

5 oz chicken breast

0.5 tbsp olive oil

1 cup bell peppers

0.5 cup red onion

0.33 cup cooked brown rice

1 tsp smoked paprika

0.5 tsp garlic powder

0.5 tsp onion powder

0.25 tsp dried oregano

0.25 tsp cayenne pepper

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

PREPARATION

• 1

  Combine the smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, cayenne, sea salt, and black pepper in a small bowl to create the Cajun spice blend.

• 2

  Slice the chicken breast into thin, bite-sized strips and toss them in the spice mixture until every piece is thoroughly and evenly coated.

• 3

  Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.

• 4

  Add the chicken strips to the hot skillet and sear for approximately 5 to 7 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is golden-brown and cooked through.

• 5

  Remove the cooked chicken from the skillet and set it aside on a plate, keeping it warm.

• 6

  In the same skillet, add the sliced bell peppers and red onion, sautéing for 4 to 5 minutes until the vegetables are tender yet still retain a slight crunch.

• 7

  Return the chicken to the skillet and stir everything together for 1 minute to allow the flavors to meld and the chicken to reheat.

• 8

  Serve the Cajun chicken and vegetable mixture immediately over the warm cooked brown rice.
