Description
This big plate of food (minus the rice) has under 400 calories, over 45 g of protein, and costs only $2.56. This dish is a perfect prepare ahead meal for an easy dinner. I called to marinate the chicken and sprouts, that way it's easier to put together come dinner time. I like to pair it with a side of brown rice for a complete meal.
