After a busy day at work, nothing sounds better to me than a quick one skillet meal. This Tex Mex Chicken recipe is just what I needed, especially on a Monday. I topped mine with green onions and Tabasco (that was all that I had in my kitchen). Avocado, cilantro, jalapenos, or even sour cream would pair well with this dish as well :).

Instructions
- First butterfly the chicken. Cook chicken breast in a pan with some olive oil over medium heat for about 5-10 minutes on each side. Season with salt and pepper. Once the chicken is finished cooking, remove from heat and set chicken to the side while it cools off.
- While the chicken is cooking, dice the zucchini, bell pepper, and green onion.
- Saute the veggies, in the same pan that the chicken was cooked in, with some olive oil until zucchini is tender.
- Dice the chicken while the veggies are cooking.
- Add the diced chicken back to the pan along with the black beans, diced tomatoes, and taco seasoning. Cover and cook over low-medium heat for 5-10 minutes.
- Sprinkle cheese on top. Once cheese has melted, ENJOY :)!
