Ingredients
- 1 Tablespoon Olive Oil
- 7 ounces chicken breast, cut in 1/2″ cubes
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 Tablespoon, chopped onion
- 1/2 cup, diced red pepper
- 1/2 cup, diced green pepper
- 1/2 cup green cabbage, shredded
- 1 tsp soy sauce (or substitute Bragg’s liquid aminos)
Directions
Grab a large skilet and add the olive oil. Put the skillet on medium-high heat and swirl it so the oil covers the surface.
Add the chicken cubes and garlic. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes or until the chicken begins to brown on the outside.
Add the onions and peppers. Saute for about 1 more minute or until the pepper is crisp. Stir in the cabbage.
Cook for an additional 10 minutes, stirring frequently, until the cabbage is tender.
Toss in the soy sauce (or Bragg’s liquid aminos).
Remove from the heat and serve it up!

I love all the recipes listed here as well as the comments! I served this last night to my husband who is also on the MF plan and to my visiting son who is slim and trim. We loved it and today my son emailed me for the recipe! He and his wife like to eat healthy and I love that I am learning to think a new way in terms of food. This is end of my third week and I have lost 17.6 pounds! I’m thrilled. Even in the distant future when I am no longer doing this plan, I will be continuing to cook the MF Lean and Green way. This is a new way of thinking, eating and living.
Hey Elaine! That’s AWESOME that your son liked it enough to ask for the recipe! Some of this stuff is actually really good. 17.6 pounds is AMAZING! Congratulations. Please keep us up to date on your progress. I love your positive mental outlook. It really is a new way of thinking, eating and living!
I find a lot of the recipes need tweaking. This one for instance. Where’s the spice to make it “Spicy” chicken?
how did you “tweak” this recipe? I may want to try something different.
The “Spicy” part of it is suppose to be the garlic.
I have lost 24 pounds in seven weeks on tsfl medifast. It is the best plan ever! My daughter has lost over 27 pounds in eight weeks. We use all the Lean and Green recipes and love them all. Even our husbands and my grandchild eats them. Thanks so much for this researched plan and recipes.
My boyfriend really loves this recipe. He wants me to cook it almost every night. The best way i found to make this is to put the chicken in first like it says and dice the cabbage up and throw that in with the chicken while it cooks so that way when the meal is finished the cabbage is almost carmelized. (SP?) i throw some garlic powder on top of the raw chicken also with salt and pepper to give the chicken some extra flavor.
My husband and I love this recipe. I do tweak it a little. I add a little cayenne pepper and 1 tbsp of ground ginger. I also like to mix the soy sauce with about 1/4 cup-1/2 cup of chicken broth to help distribute it a bit better. Then the broth cooks down and you’re left with a nice sauce that will actually coat everything.
