Ingredients

• 1 pound chicken breast
• 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 3 cloves garlic
• 2 medium Assorted bell peppers
• 1 medium zucchini
• 1 medium red onion
• 1 cup cherry tomatoes
• 1 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce
• 1 teaspoon honey
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Begin by cutting the chicken breast into bite-sized cubes. Place the cubes in a shallow bowl and season with lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Set aside to marinate for at least 10 minutes.

Step 2

While the chicken is marinating, prepare the vegetables by slicing the bell peppers, zucchini, and red onion into thin strips. Halve the cherry tomatoes.

Step 3

In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, soy sauce, honey, and dried oregano to create the hibachi sauce.

Step 4

Heat a flat iron skillet or large non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil.

Step 5

Once the oil is hot, add the chicken pieces and cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently, until they are golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.

Step 6

In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of olive oil, then add the bell peppers, zucchini, and red onion. Sauté the vegetables for about 5 minutes, until they are tender-crisp.

Step 7

Add the cherry tomatoes to the vegetables and continue to cook for another 2 minutes.

Step 8

Return the cooked chicken to the skillet with the vegetables. Pour the hibachi sauce over the mixture and stir well to coat everything evenly. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.

Step 9

Remove the skillet from heat, sprinkle fresh parsley over the top, and serve the Mediterranean Diet Chicken Hibachi immediately.
