What you will need

2 beat chicken breasts
Fresh ball of mozzarella cheese
Fresh chives diced thin
Garlic powder
Red bell peppers
Fresh asparagus
Brown rice
1/2 cup green peas
1 egg
Salt/pepper
Veggie oil
Unsalted butter

Instructions: Begin by seasoning chicken with salt, pepper and garlic. Place the chicken in an oven at 425 degrees for about 8 minutes. While that is cooking heat a 12″ fry pan (medium heat) with veggie oil and 2 tsp of butter. Add the asparagus and red bell peppers. Place lid over top the veggies and them let simmer and cook down for about 10 minutes while occasionally stirring. After the 8 minutes is up in the oven, take the chicken out and top with thick slices of fresh mozzarella cheese and diced chives. Place back in the oven for additional 5 minutes. Once veggies have cooked down turn the heat completely off and let them sit. In a pot, boil the rice until al dente. Drain. And keep the heat on low. Add salt pepper, egg, and peas. Stir consistently until egg is cooked through and everything is mixed together. Take chicken out of the oven once the cheese begins to bubble. Place the chicken aside the rice and veggies. Add a sprinkle of garlic powder to the rice. That’s it! Eat up and enjoy.
