Description

Are you looking for a classic 30-minute family dinner that brings everyone together without spending hours in the kitchen? This recipe is designed for busy weeknights when you want to serve something delicious yet simple. With easy-to-find ingredients and straightforward instructions, you’ll have a comforting meal on the table that the whole family will enjoy in no time.


Ingredients

Scale

Chicken Breasts

For this classic 30-minute family dinner, you need boneless chicken breasts. About one pound will serve four people perfectly. Chicken breasts are lean and cook quickly, making them an excellent choice for quick meals.

Olive Oil

You’ll need two tablespoons of olive oil to sauté the chicken. Olive oil adds flavor and helps achieve a golden-brown crust while keeping the meat tender and juicy.

Garlic

Use three cloves of minced garlic for an aromatic punch. Garlic enhances the dish’s flavor profile and adds a delightful aroma that fills your kitchen as it cooks.

Bell Peppers

Two medium bell peppers—one red and one green—add color and sweetness to your meal. Slice them thinly to ensure they cook quickly and complement the chicken beautifully.

Onion

One medium onion, sliced thinly, adds depth of flavor. Onions caramelize as they cook, providing a sweet contrast to the savory elements of this dish.

Soy Sauce

A quarter cup of soy sauce introduces a savory umami flavor that ties all the ingredients together. It also helps tenderize the chicken while adding moisture during cooking.

Rice

Cooked rice serves as a base for your dish. You can use about two cups of white or brown rice. The grains soak up flavors from the chicken and veggies nicely.

Seasoning

Don’t forget salt and pepper to taste! These basic seasonings enhance all other flavors in your classic 30-minute family dinner.
