👨‍🍳Method

1

Prep the Mix

5 min

Make 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.

💡The smaller the dice, the better the texture — aim for pea-sized pieces for a perfectly mixed final dish.
2

Sizzle the Chicken

4 min

Heat 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.

3

Soften the Veggies

6 min

Lower 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.

💡A splash of water instead of oil is a game-changer — it deglazes the pan and adds zero calories.
4

Make it Creamy

1 min

Return 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.

5

Toss and Coat

2 min

Stir everything vigorously for 1-2 minutes until the ricotta melts into a thick, creamy sauce that perfectly coats every piece of chicken and vegetable.

💡Keep the heat low — too high and the ricotta will break and become grainy instead of silky smooth.
6

Serve

1 min

Transfer 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!
