You have no idea what to eat in the evening? Try this great dish!

Not all healthy evening meals require special preparation, the skills of a chef, or 2-hour cooking time. Our idea for a quick and delicious meal will prove that you can prepare a great meal in no time at all and with just 325 kcal.

To maintain quality, we suggest preparing the meal in a wok. It is not only inexpensive due to its high thermal insulation, but also makes it easy to cook large quantities of food using little or no oil. The shape of the wok ensures that the food is cooked evenly.

All you need to make this meal is 20-25 minutes and the following ingredients:

• A small zucchini
• Half an onion
• A red pepper
• Half a chicken breast with spices to taste
• Two tea spoons of soy sauce
• An egg

Preparation

First add the soy sauce to the wok and the chicken. When the meat is golden, remove it from the pan and to the side onto a plate. Then put all the vegetables, which were previously cut into strips or small cubes, into the wok. Let it fry for about 5 minutes until it is soft, then add the chicken again and a little more soy sauce. After about 2 minutes, add the egg and stir well until everything has a firm consistency. Bon appetit!

For good reason, we recommend using the above vegetables as a mix, but you can also try this meal with other seasonal vegetables, or even cook nuts/seeds as desired.
