    1

    Begin by cutting the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces. Season with salt, black pepper, and thyme to taste.

    2

    In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned chicken and sauté for about 5 to 7 minutes until golden brown, stirring occasionally.

    3

    While the chicken is cooking, chop the zucchini, bell pepper, carrot, and onion into bite-sized pieces. Mince the garlic.

    4

    Once the chicken is cooked through, remove it from the skillet and set it aside. In the same skillet, add the chopped onion and sauté for 2 minutes until translucent.

    5

    Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds, stirring frequently to avoid burning.

    Next, add in the bell pepper, carrot, and zucchini. Sauté the vegetables for about 5 to 6 minutes until they are tender but still crisp.

    7

    Return the chicken to the skillet, combining everything well. Cook for an additional 2 to 3 minutes until heated through.
