Ingredients
Uncooked boneless skinless chicken breast
12 oz
Onion
1 medium, thickly sliced
Bell pepper
1 cup(s), chopped
Red bell pepper
1 medium, chopped
Chicken broth
2 tbsp(s)
Garlic
1 clove(s), large, minced
Red pepper flakes

Uncooked okra
2 cup(s), or 10 oz package frozen (not thawed)
Table wine
¼ cup(s), white
Black pepper
⅛ pinch(es), or to taste
Instructions
1
Spray a large nonstick pan with cooking spray and heat over medium heat. Cut chicken breast into 1-inch cubes.
2
Add onion, peppers, wine and broth to pan. Sauté for 2 minutes. Add garlic, red pepper flakes and chicken; sauté for 3 to 5 minutes, until chicken is almost cooked through.

If using fresh okra, add to pan and continue to sauté until chicken is cooked through and okra is cooked but still crispy, about 3 minutes. If using frozen okra, add frozen okra directly to pan, and stir to break apart and thaw. It will take 5 to 8 minutes to cook okra and chicken.
