Looking for a healthy, comforting meal that’s easy on the stomach and simple to prepare? This balanced dinner is perfect for a cozy night in. It’s packed with protein and vitamins, and best of all, it’s gentle on digestion.
**Ingredients:**
• 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• * 1 cup cooked brown or white rice
• * 1 cup mixed frozen vegetables (peas, carrots, and corn)
• * 2 cups fresh broccoli florets
• * 1 tbsp olive oil
• * A pinch of salt, pepper, and garlic powder to taste
**Instructions:**
1. **Prep the Chicken:** Season the chicken breasts lightly with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook the chicken for about 6–8 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through. Let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
2. 2. **Make the Veggie Rice:** While the chicken cooks, heat your pre-cooked rice in a pot or microwave. Stir in the frozen vegetables and a splash of water. Cover and heat until the veggies are tender and the rice is warm.
3. 3. **Steam the Broccoli:** Place your broccoli in a microwave-safe bowl with two tablespoons of water. Cover and steam for 3–4 minutes until bright green and fork-tender.
4. 4. **Serve:** Divide the veggie rice between two plates, top with the sliced grilled chicken, and add a generous side of steamed broccoli.
**Senior-Friendly Tip:** If you prefer the chicken extra tender, you can lightly poach it in a little chicken broth instead of grilling!
Enjoy this wholesome, nourishing meal with someone you love. Wishing you a wonderful and healthy week ahead!
