Wonderful. Easy to fix and very tasty. I used fresh carrots and asparagus instead of frozen veggies. Great flavors Thanks for posting

Simple yet delicious!! Easy, almost non-existent prep made this one a for sure repeat!! The only difference was that I cut the chicken breast into bite size chunks before sauteing them.
