- Prep the ingredients: Chop vegetables like bell peppers and zucchini into bite-sized pieces. Mince garlic for later use.
- Cook the protein: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken breasts or ground turkey. Season with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning. Cook until the protein is browned and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes for chicken and 5-7 minutes for ground turkey.
