Ingredients

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts

1 lime

1 tsp soy sauce

4 stalks celery

1 each medium sweet red and green peppers

1 large onion

1 medium carrot

1 1/2 teaspoons each ground cumin and chili powder

1 tsp lemon pepper

1/2 cup chicken broth

Directions

I prepared this in the morning for fast evening preparation, allowing the chicken breasts and the vegetables to marinate in their own spices.

Using meat mallet, pound chicken between plastic wrap to 3/8 inch thickness. Place chicken in glass dish; squeeze lime juice over all, and coat with soy sauce. Set aside.

Cut celery on angle 1/8 inc thick and 2 inches long. Cut red and green pepprs and onion into long thin strips. Using peeler, peel carrot in to long thin strips. Combine vegetables with cumin, chili powder and lemon pepper and set aside.

Broil or barbecue chicken until no longer pink, 4 to 5 minutes on each side (I used my George Foreman grill, 9 minutes)

Meanwhile, cook vegetables in nonstick skillet or heavy bottomed skillet with 2 teaspoons canola oil. Cook vegetables, stirring, until hot. Stir in chicken broth, cook until vegetables are tender, about 8 minutes. Serve over chicken.
