Recipe: Chicken & Sweet Potato Delight
Ingredients:
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 large sweet potato (peeled and cubed)
- 1 cup of carrots (chopped)
- 1/2 cup of peas (frozen or fresh)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil (for cooking)
- 1/4 cup of chicken broth (low sodium, optional)
- 1/4 teaspoon turmeric (optional, for anti-inflammatory benefits)
- 1/4 cup of fresh parsley (finely chopped, optional for digestion)
Instructions:
- Prepare the Ingredients:
- Peel and cube the sweet potato into bite-sized pieces.
- Chop the carrots into small, dog-friendly pieces.
- If you’re using frozen peas, set them aside to thaw, or rinse them if fresh.
- Cook the Chicken:
- Heat a tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Add the chicken breasts and cook them thoroughly, about 7-10 minutes on each side, until fully cooked and no longer pink in the center. Once cooked, remove from heat and let the chicken cool down for a few minutes.
- Shred the chicken into small, bite-sized pieces using a fork.
- Cook the Vegetables:
- In a large pot, add water and bring it to a boil. Once boiling, add the cubed sweet potato and carrots.
- Let them cook for about 10-12 minutes, or until they become tender. Add the peas in the last few minutes of cooking.
- Drain the vegetables and let them cool slightly.
- Combine and Serve:
- In a large bowl, mix the shredded chicken with the cooked vegetables.
- If you’d like a bit of extra flavor and moisture, pour in a small amount of low-sodium chicken broth (or water).
- Add a pinch of turmeric for added health benefits, and sprinkle with fresh parsley for a nice touch to support digestion.
- Storage:
- You can store the remaining portions in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4-5 days, or freeze them for longer storage.
