Chicken Primavera



It doesn't get much easier than this.  A great recipe from Minute Rice and it's all in one.  This is a meal in less than 30 Min's.  I used mixed vegetables instead of the peas & broccoli and it came out great.  You can keep the chicken breast whole, or cut them into small bit size pieces.  All you need is a salad and your ready to go. The recipe serves 4, and the best part; about 206 calories with only 2 grams of saturated fat.  If you remove the Parmesan cheese, only about 183 calories with only 1 gram of saturated fat.
