Chicken Breast With Mushrooms Peppers and Onion

This recipe is great wrapped up in a tortilla. Normally I like to add sour cream to the pan to make a sauce but I didn't this time. You could also use this to top a salad.

  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder

Directions
  1. Put a touch of oil in a pan and set on the stove over medium high heat. Add the mushrooms, peppers and onions and cook for about 5 minutes stirring occasionally.
