INGREDIENTS

• 1 tablespoon Olive Oil
• 12 ounces raw Chicken Breast
• 2 teaspoons Chinese Five Spice Blend
• 1 medium Zucchini
• 4 ounces Mushrooms
• 3 Shallots, chopped on bias
• 2 tablespoons Ginger
• 1 clove Garlic
• 1 tablespoon soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon sesame oil
• 1 individual packet Sucralose Based Sweetener (Sugar Substitute)
• 1/2 teaspoon Salt
• 1/4 teaspoon Black Pepper

DIRECTIONS

• Heat a skillet over medium high heat with 1 tbsp olive oil. Season the chicken with the five spice powder, 1/4 tsp salt and 1/8 tsp pepper. Pan fry the chicken until the juices run clear and it is no longer pink in the center; about 5 minutes per side.
• While the chicken cooks, thinly slice the zucchini with a vegetable peeler into thin strips and place in a large bowl; set aside. Cut the mushrooms into bite sized pieces, dice the shallot, mince the ginger and finely dice the garlic. Remove the chicken and place on a plate tenting with aluminum foil to keep warm.
• Add all the prepared vegetables but the zucchini to the same skillet the chicken was cooked in and saute while stirring over medium high heat until fragrant; about 4 minutes; season with 1/4 tsp salt and 1/8 tsp freshly ground black pepper.
• Add the zucchini and cook another 2-3 minutes. Add the soy sauce, sesame oil and sucralose stirring to combine until well coated. Slice the cooked chicken and place over the sauteed vegetables.
