[4 Servings: Each 1 Lean, 1 Green, 1-1/2 Condiment]

Ingredients:
32 ounces of chicken (4 Lean)
1/2 cup red bell pepper (1 Green)
1/2 cup green bell pepper (1 Green)
1/2 cup chopped green onions (2 Condiment)
1 cups Rotel Diced tomatoes (2 Green)
2 teaspoon low sodium taco seasoning (4 Condiment)

~When the timer goes off, hit cancel then manually release the pressure, making sure you are away from the back of the quick cooker when you release steam. (The Pampered Chef Quick cooker is designed to release steam towards the back  of the cooker as long as you aligned the steam icons to begin. I love that safety feature.)
