Scale
  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 34 pieces)
  • 1 cup bell peppers (mixed colors), chopped
  • 1 medium red onion, chopped
  • 1 medium zucchini, sliced into thick rounds
  • 1/2 cup ketchup
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 2 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce

Instructions

  1. Cut chicken into bite-sized pieces and chop vegetables into similar sizes.
  2. In a bowl, mix ketchup, honey, soy sauce, and garlic powder until smooth to create the marinade.
