- 1/4 cup fresh cilantro (chopped) 

- 1 fresh red bell pepper (diced) 

- 1 stick of butter (divided into halves)

Instructions: 

1. Season the diced chicken breast with Love n’ BBQ  all-purpose seasoning.

4. In the same skillet, melt the remaining half of the butter. 

5. Add the onions, garlic, sliced mushrooms, and bell peppers to the skillet. Sauté the vegetables for about 5 to 6 minutes until they're tender.
