Ingredients

1 pound chicken breast (boneless, skinless, cut into bite-sized strips)
1 tablespoon garlic infused olive oil
1 teaspoon ground sumac
0.5 teaspoon dried oregano
0.5 teaspoon salt
0.25 teaspoon black pepper (ground)
2 zucchinis (halved lengthwise and sliced into half-moons)
1 red bell pepper (diced)
2 tablespoon lemon juice (fresh)
2 tablespoon fresh parsley (chopped)

Instructions

Season the chicken strips evenly with the ground sumac, dried oregano, black pepper, and 1/4 teaspoon of the salt.
Heat garlic-infused olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat for 1 minute.
Add the chicken to the skillet and cook undisturbed for 3 to 4 minutes until golden on the bottom, then flip and cook another 3 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 165°F. Transfer chicken to a clean plate.
Add the sliced zucchini and diced red bell pepper to the hot skillet along with the remaining 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Sauté for 4 to 5 minutes until tender-crisp and lightly browned.
Return the chicken and any resting juices to the skillet. Drizzle with lemon juice and toss everything together for 1 minute to warm through and combine flavors.
Divide between plates, garnish with fresh parsley, and set aside the prepped second portion in an airtight container for Tuesday.

Notes

Garlic-infused olive oil provides authentic savory aroma while remaining completely low-FODMAP compliant.
