Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/2 cup barbecue sauce
  • 1 cup corn kernels (fresh or frozen)
  • 1 cup lima beans (fresh or frozen)
  • 1 red bell pepper, diced
  • 1/2 cup green beans, chopped
  • 3 scallions, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Season chicken with salt and pepper. Sear in a skillet over medium-high heat for 5–6 minutes per side until browned.
