Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook the Protein

    Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Season the grilled chicken or steak with salt, pepper, and any desired spices. Cook until the internal temperature reaches 165°F for chicken or 145°F for steak. Let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In the same skillet, add a little olive oil if needed. Slice the onion, bell pepper, and tomato. Add the onion and bell pepper first, cooking for about 3-4 minutes until they soften. Add the diced tomato and cook for another 1-2 minutes until heated through.
