Pumpkin Chicken



My usual ways of cooking chicken are either not gluten free or I do not have the ingredients right now. So I decided to concoct something that sounded yummy in my head. I sweetened it up a little bit, but you could add some plain greek yogurt instead of the brown sugar to add a zing! (Amount of ingredients may need to be adjusted depending on the size of your chicken breasts. I used the ones sliced very thin.)

- 1 package of chicken breasts
- 1 cup of pumpkin puree
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp pepper
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 1 tbsp brown sugar
- 1/2 cup fat free milk
Olive oil for cooking


- Put olive oil in your pan and heat it up
- Slice chicken in to cubes and place in pan to cook. (Picture shows them whole because I made it a second time for lunch tomorrow because I forgot to take a picture the first time!) Season with salt and pepper.
- When chicken is finished cooking add in the rest of the ingredients and mix together. Let simmer for 5 minutes and then serve!

For a serving of about 3 oz of chicken it came to about 234 calories.
