Ingredients
8 oz. raw boneless skinless chicken breast, cut into bite-sized pieces
1 cup chopped broccoli
1/2 cup thinly sliced onion
1/2 cup thinly sliced bell pepper
1/2 cup sliced mushrooms
1/2 tsp. onion powder

3/4 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
2 tbsp. Parmesan cheese alternatives: Tillamook Parmesan-style or Cabot cheese
Instructions
1. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat with a light spray of nonstick cooking spray. Add chicken, broccoli, onion, bell pepper, mushrooms, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until chicken is fully cooked and vegetables are slightly tender, about 6 minutes.

3. Sprinkle cheese alternatives over the casserole before serving. Serve immediately.
Notes
Prep vegetables and chicken ahead of time for a faster cooking process.
Use fresh garlic and herbs for the best flavor.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two days.
Reheat gently in a skillet to maintain zucchini noodle texture.
