How to Make 4 Step Zesty Garlic Chicken Veggies

  1. Marinate 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts in 1/4 cup zesty garlic marinade for 10 minutes.
  2. Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add 1 medium onion (sliced), 1 bell pepper (sliced), and 1 cup cherry tomatoes. Cook until slightly softened, about 5 minutes.
  3. Add the marinated chicken to the skillet. Pour in 1 cup sodium-free chicken broth. Cook until chicken is cooked through (about 15-20 minutes), adding more broth as needed.
  4. Reduce heat to low. Stir in 2 tablespoons of the remaining marinade and simmer for 2 minutes to thicken the sauce slightly.
  5. While the chicken cooks, steam or microwave 1 large head of broccoli florets until tender-crisp (about 5-7 minutes). Cook 1 lb pasta according to package directions.
  6. Gently stir the cooked broccoli into the skillet with the chicken and vegetables.
  7. Serve the chicken and vegetable mixture over the cooked pasta. Enjoy!
