👨🍳Method
Prep the Mix
5 minMake sure your chicken and all the vegetables are chopped into very small, uniform pieces. This ensures everything cooks quickly and evenly, creating that cohesive, mixed texture seen in the photo.
Sizzle the Chicken
4 minHeat a non-stick skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Coat generously with zero-calorie cooking spray. Add the finely chopped chicken breast, season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder, and sauté for 3-4 minutes until nicely browned and cooked through. Remove the chicken and set aside.
Soften the Veggies
6 minLower the heat to medium. Give the pan one more quick spray and add the finely chopped broccoli, carrot, eggplant, and zucchini. Sauté for 5-6 minutes until all the vegetables are very tender. If they start to stick, add a tiny splash of water instead of oil.
Make it Creamy
1 minReturn the cooked chicken to the pan with the vegetables. Reduce the heat to low. Add the light ricotta cheese, half of your sugar-free chili sauce, and a tablespoon of warm water directly into the pan.
Toss and Coat
2 minStir everything vigorously for 1-2 minutes until the ricotta melts into a thick, creamy sauce that perfectly coats every piece of chicken and vegetable.
Serve
1 minTransfer the creamy chicken mix to a bowl. Serve hot with a small side cup of the remaining sugar-free chili sauce for dipping or extra heat, exactly like the photo!
