After my family sampled this dish at a friend's house, it quickly became a favorite—especially with our teenage daughters, who request it at least once a week! —Dohreen Winkler, Howell, Michigan

Ingredients

  • 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into strips
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 1/4 cup butter, divided
  • 1 small yellow squash, halved lengthwise and sliced
  • 1 small zucchini, halved lengthwise and sliced
  • 1/2 cup julienned sweet red pepper
