This is a fast meal which the whole family will like. To really cut down on time, you can buy vegetables that are already chopped and chicken that is already cooked. Or, you can use whatever leftover vegetables you have on hand, just don't cook them again if they are already cooked. You can include whichever non-starchy vegetables you like. Ingredients 1 1/2 pounds chicken breast 1 tablespoon olive oil 1 medium bunch broccoli (cut into florets, can peel and chop stems also) 1 small onion (chopped) 8 ounces mushrooms (sliced) 1 small red bell pepper (chopped) 8 ounces shirataki noodles 1 cup Alfredo sauce Optional: 2 tablespoons hot sauce Preparation Prepare broccoli and cook in microwave with a small amount of water. For the one-and-a-half pound of broccoli (about one head) add 4 to 5 tablespoons of water. Using stoneware, cook on high for 4 to 4:30 minutes. Season to taste. Chop onion, and begin to saute' in one pan with half the oil. No more than 5 minutes, but until tender. If using raw chicken, cut up chicken breast and cook in another pan. Brown both sides of the chicken, not more than 3 minutes or enough to brown it on each side on medium heat. After browning, turn off heat and let sit for another 5 minutes. Add mushrooms to onions and cook until beginning to shrink, then add chopped pepper. No more than 3 minutes total. Rinse shirataki noodles in hot water and cut up with scissors. These do not need to be "cooked." Combine all ingredients and serve. Stir to allow the flavors to mesh and all ingredients are distributed evenly throughout the dish. Tips My local supermarket sometimes has shirataki noodles on sale for $1.00/package. I like to stock up as they have a fairly long shelf life. I used tofu shirataki noodles as they are usually more readily available. If you buy "plain" shirataki noodles, they will have less carbohydrate. If you are cooking the chicken, it will go faster if you saute the onions, peppers, and mushrooms in a separate pan, and cook the broccoli in the microwave. If you don't want to mess up more pans, just do the following steps sequentially instead of at the same time. Rate this Recipe You've already rated this recipe. Thanks for your rating!
