Ingredients

6 ounces uncooked fettuccine
1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into strips
2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
2-1/2 teaspoons salt-free herb seasoning blend, divided

Cook fettuccine according to package directions. Meanwhile, in a large nonstick skillet, saute chicken in 1 tablespoon oil until no longer pink. Sprinkle with 1 teaspoon seasoning blend; cook 30 seconds longer. Remove and keep warm.
In the same skillet, saute the peppers and onion in remaining oil for 3 minutes. Add mushrooms; cook 2 minutes longer or until vegetables are crisp-tender. Stir in broth and remaining seasoning blend.
