Hello Friday, how I love thee! Here's a Food Friday recipe for you to enjoy. What's Food Friday? Find out here.

I sincerely hope you're enjoying your holiday. Out Christmas and New Year festivities are keeping us very busy! After cooking Thanksgiving and Christmas dinner this year I'm ready to go back to some simple, yet delicious, recipes.

Zesty Italian Chicken is one of our family favorites. It packs a lot of flavor, is easy to prepare, and easier to clean up.

Ingredients:
1 lb boneless chicken breasts; trimmed and halved
1 bottle fat free Italian dressing
1 bag of frozen 3 peppers & onion
1 cup of frozen sliced carrots

Preparation:
Preheat oven to 350
Pour all ingredients in oven safe casserole dish

Give it a good stir

Bake on 350 for 45 mins or until chicken juices run clear

Serve over rice or noodles.

Using fat free dressing is important for the cooking process, not only because I'm health conscious. If you don't use fat free the oil in the dressing separates and it's a big mess. You can substitute chicken breasts with chicken tenderloins to further cut down prep time. You can also omit any of the vegetables that I listed if you're not a fan.

ENJOY!
