Рецепт Clean Eating Red Vegetable Chicken Skillet
The name here says it all. I took every single red vegetable I had, and cooked it with some chicken. I know, I know, not the most creative dish. But DANG if it didn’t turn out tasty!!
Why red vegetables? Well frankly, I seemed to have an abundance of them when I opened up the fridge. But beyond that, red vegetables are little power houses!
Many red fruits and veggies are loaded with powerful, healthy antioxidants — such as lycopene and anthocyanins — that may do everything from fight heart disease and prostate cancer to decrease the risk for stroke and macular degeneration (the leading cause of blindness in people aged 60 and older). Antioxidants soak up damaging free radicals.
