Notes
Storage: Store components separately in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. For best results when reheating, place chicken and peppers under the broiler for 2-3 minutes to restore crispiness. Make-Ahead: Prepare the spice rub and chop all vegetables up to 2 days in advance. Cook chicken and peppers just before serving for optimal texture. Variations: Substitute chicken with firm tofu for a vegetarian option, or use chickpeas for a plant-based protein. For extra heat, add a pinch of cayenne to the spice rub. Serving Suggestions: Serve over cauliflower rice for a low-carb option, or with a side of cucumber-tomato salad for a refreshing contrast. The vibrant colors make this perfect for Instagram-worthy meal prep photos.
