A reader recently asked what she could eat besides chicken. They said it was "too boring" and they were sick of eating it. When I read the comment, I immediately thought to myself how much I love and adore chicken because it is boring.

You can dress it up so many ways that you never get sick of it! So yes, I love boring! Boring is a recipe developer's dream because it makes recipe possibilities endless. Like this Meal Prep Pizza Chicken! Who would think you could make pizza taste like chicken?

Oh yes, it CAN be done! And I did it. Did it in a B-I-G way. Even got my picky boyfriend to fall in love with it and to eat the broccoli too! When we started dating, he rarely ate vegetables.

Now I've got him eating Meal Prep Pizza Chicken and broccoli. Only took 7 months! I'm so proud of him! Meal Prep Pizza Chicken! Chicken dinner winner! This one skillet, low carb meal takes 20 minutes to make and has all the flavors of pizza without the carbs. Gluten Free + Low Calorie

This chicken dinner winner is made EASY in one skillet. The chicken is seasoned with all my favorite pizza flavorings then topping with turkey pepperoni, cheese and drenched in a spicy marinara sauce.

You can leave it at the chicken and seasonings and eat it as is. It's delicious just like that, but how fun would that be?

I know when you're trying to build healthy eating habits, it can feel like you're giving up all your favorite foods. The truth is you are giving them up, but you will over time not miss them.

As you transition to healthier eating, your body begins craving more real food and less processed foods like pizza. It's very rare I crave pizza now.

Instead of avoiding the foods I love, I try to  incorporate healthier versions of the flavor's of the foods I love into the foods I make so I never feel deprived. This Meal Prep Pizza Chicken recipe is the perfect example of that, and believe me you won't feel deprived.
If I got my boyfriend to come around to, I'm sure you can too. Before you go, watch the video to get my secret to making chicken taste amazing every time!

Equipment

  • Meal Prep Containers
  • Skillet

Ingredients
 
 

  • 1 lb chicken breast boneless, skinless
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 cups marinara sauce no salt added
  • 1/4 cup low moisture mozzarella
  • 12 slices turkey pepperoni uncured
  • 1 teaspoon oregano
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 1 teaspoon basil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Preheat a 12" frying pan to medium heat with extra virgin olive oil.
  • Place oregano, garlic powder, onion powder, salt and pepper in small bowl and stir.
  • Clean and pat chicken breasts dry. Rub the spice mixture well into the chicken breasts with your hands.
  • Place chicken in the frying pan. Cook 4 minutes then flip and cook another 4 minutes. Depending on how thick your chicken breasts are, cooking may take a little less or slightly longer. Check the center by slicing a small sliver in the center to ensure it is not pink.
  • While the chicken cooks, set the oven to a high broil.
  • Remove chicken from the skillet and place marinara sauce in the frying pan with crushed red pepper flakes and basil. Simmer on low 5 minutes.
  • Add chicken breasts to the frying pan, place 3 slices of turkey pepperoni on each chicken breast then cover with the cheese dividing it evenly among the chicken breasts.
  • Place the frying oven in the oven 5 minutes to melt the cheese over the chicken breasts.
  • Remove from the oven and place in meal prep containers with roasted broccoli.

Notes

  • Nutritional values do not include broccoli. I added 1 1/2 cups broccoli to each meal prep container.
  • For a Paleo and dairy-free version, you can substitute nutritional yeast for the cheese or omit the cheese altogether.
  • My Amazon shop has more products similar to those used for this recipe and that I recommend to my nutrition clients.
