Chicken/Avocado Skillet
Why I Love This Recipe
This is a recipe I got from CalorieKing.com. I was forced to make diabetic-friendly recipies while I was pregnant and had gestational diabetes. I have changed this recipe slightly from the original.

Directions
1. Prepare rice
2. While rice is cooking, heat large non stick skillet with a 2 Tbl. olive oil.
3. Saute onion, pepper, mushroom, and basil until onion is translucent, adding the tomato at the end so as not to get mushy.
4. Place veggie mixture in a large bowl to the side.
5. Heat another Tbl. or 2 in the same skillet and cook chicken.
About 5-7 minutes on each side for thin cutlets.
6. When rice is done add it to large bowl of veggies. Add avocado and toss all together till well mixed.
