CHICKEN AND VEGETABLE RECIPE
If you are looking for a great recipe that doesn’t take a ton of time but looks spectacular, then this is the one for you. Simple chicken breast and vegetables get rolled up and sauteed making them look special or fancy, but really they are just basic ingredients prepared in a slightly different way.
I love that this recipe is so versatile and super healthy. Kids will like this recipe because it looks fun and they won’t even notice just how healthy it happens to be! Serve with or without a dipping sauce and you’ll have a variety of flavors you can enjoy.
WHAT VEGETABLES CAN I ADD TO THESE ROLL UPS?
You can use any vegetables you like! I prefer using vegetables that I can cut into slices or “sticks” as that makes it easier to wrap the chicken around them. Some of my favorites are obviously peppers and asparagus, but you can slice onions, zucchini, or green beans into easy to wrap pieces. Some mushrooms, broccoli, and even cauliflower could be cut into lengths that would fit into this bundle.
CAN I USE DIFFERENT SPICE BLENDS?
Yes! I like this simple combination but you can definitely use any herbs and spices you like for your chicken and vegetable recipe. This can be a simple herbed dish, lemon pepper, garlic and herb, Indian inspired, or even Mexican inspired with just a few tweaks of the spice blend. Use your imagination and create a new flavor profile you love.

HOW TO MAKE CHICKEN AND VEGETABLES ROLL UPS
For this recipe, you will want to begin by preparing all of your vegetables. Slice into “sticks” that are around the same size. You will also want to either slice your chicken into thin slices or pound them down into thin pieces.
Next, you will mix up your marinade and drop your chicken into the bowl so that it is coated on all sides with the mixture.
One at a time, place a chicken breast on a cutting board or plate and then top it with a slice of each of the vegetables in the center. Wrap the chicken around the vegetables and secure it with a toothpick.
Once you have all of your chicken roll-ups prepared, you will heat your grill pan or skillet and place your chicken breasts in seam side down.
Cook on all sides for 3-4 minutes or until the interior temperature reaches 165ºF for safety. Serve with lime slices.
