Introduction

This is not just a recipe—it’s a story on a plate. Passed down from my grandmother, this quick and delicious dinner has been a family favorite for decades. Perfect for busy weeknights or when you crave something comforting in a hurry, it combines fresh ingredients, bold flavors, and that unmistakable homemade touch that only grandma can deliver. In just 10 minutes, you’ll have a meal that feels luxurious yet effortless.

Ingredients (Serves 2–3)

  • 2 tbsp olive oil or butter
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 medium chicken breast or thigh, thinly sliced (or tofu for vegetarian)
  • 1 red bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 small zucchini, sliced
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • ½ tsp smoked paprika
  • ½ tsp dried oregano
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce or tamari
  • 1 tsp honey or maple syrup (optional, for a subtle sweetness)
  • Fresh parsley or basil for garnish
  • Cooked rice, pasta, or crusty bread to serve

Instructions

1. Prep Quickly

  • Slice the chicken (or tofu) and vegetables. The key to a 10-minute dinner is having everything ready before you start cooking.

2. Heat & Sear

  • In a large skillet, heat olive oil or butter over medium-high heat.
  • Add onions and garlic; sautĂ© for 1 minute until fragrant.
  • Add chicken slices; season with salt, pepper, paprika, and oregano. Sear for 3–4 minutes until golden and just cooked through.

3. Toss the Veggies

  • Add bell pepper, zucchini, and cherry tomatoes to the pan. Stir-fry for 2–3 minutes until slightly tender but still crisp.

4. Flavor Finish

  • Drizzle soy sauce and honey over the mixture. Toss well to coat everything in a glossy, flavorful glaze.

5. Serve & Garnish

  • Plate over rice, pasta, or enjoy with warm crusty bread. Sprinkle with fresh parsley or basil for color and aroma.

Methods

  • Stir-Fry Magic: Quick cooking over high heat preserves texture and freshness.
  • Layered Flavors: Garlic, paprika, and soy sauce create depth without complicated sauces.
  • One-Pan Wonder: Minimal dishes, maximum flavor.
