How To Make chicken, shrimp & veggies for 2

  • 1
    slice chicken tenders into bite size pieces season lightly with Mrs. Dash seasoning blend. Add 1T olive oil to skillet and saute chicken until it begins to brown.
  • 2
    Add frozen green beans, garlic, red pepper flakes, salt & pepper. Saute for 1-2 minutes and deglaze with chardonnay wine or chicken stock.
  • 3
    remove tails, peel & devein shrimp and nestle into the chicken & beans then steam for 1 1/2 minutes and turn shrimp over. Let them steam for another 2 or 3 minutes. DO NOT OVERCOOK THIS! The shrimp are done when they are pink and formed into an open "c" not a closed circle. Remove from heat and serve with any side you like.

    **optional** add the butter to finish.

    I served this with steamed Birds Eye Couscous Pasta & Spinach w/Olive Oil & Lemon Sauce. Seasoned with a bit of salt & pepper. This was really delicious & lite.
