To help you with your goal to eat healthy this year – I promise to share more of my recipes. I saw that zucchini was on sale (remember sale paper menu planning?). So I right away went to my handy dandy recipe site and dug out this recipe. I love this dish.

Chicken with Zucchini & Tomatoes

½ to ¾ lbs. chicken tenders
1 medium zucchini
1 small can diced tomatoes
1 clove garlic, mince
1 cup rice

Coat pan with butter or spray. Saute garlic about 1 minute.

Add chicken tenders and cook about 5 minutes.

Meanwhile – slice zucchini into 1/4 inch slices, then quarter.

Prepare rice according to package directions.

Put enough soy sauce in the bottom of a medium sauté pan to
coat the bottom. Stir in zucchini until covered and heated through.
Do not overcook. There’s not many things worse than mushy zucchini.

Add tomatoes with the juice. Heat thoroughly.

To Serve: Place bed of rice on plate. Top with chicken tenders.

Top with zucchini and tomato mixture.

Serves 2
