1 C red bell pepper cut into thin strips

2 C additional vegetables of your choice (broccoli, snow peas, zucchini, etc.)

Instructions

Add oil to a large frying pan over medium high heat.

When hot, add scallion and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.

Add chicken and cook for 5-7 minutes until opaque.

Add all the vegetables and sprinkle with seasoning. If you are using thicker, heavier vegetables like broccoli, add the broth to help steam/cook them a little faster. Cover with a lid and allow to cook for 5 more minutes until veggies are crisp-tender, but not overdone.

While chicken is cooking, prepare cauliflower rice.

Remove chicken mixture from heat. Divide cauliflower rice into 4 equal portions. Do the same with the chicken mixture.

Place the chicken over the rice and sprinkle with 1/4 of the crushed cashews. Serve hot and enjoy!
