Ingredients
2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
1 yellow onion, thinly sliced
1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
1 green bell pepper, thinly sliced
1¼ pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts, thinly sliced
1½ teaspoons Italian seasoning
½ teaspoon smoked paprika
1 cup provolone cheese, shredded or sliced
Kosher salt, to taste
Black pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add sliced onion and bell peppers, sautéing until soft, about 6–8 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
- In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil and the sliced chicken.
- Season chicken with Italian seasoning, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Cook undisturbed for 2–3 minutes, then stir and continue cooking until fully cooked, about 5–7 minutes.
- Return sautéed onions and peppers to the skillet and stir to combine.
- Sprinkle provolone cheese over the mixture, cover, and let melt for about 2 minutes.
- Serve hot on its own, in hoagie rolls, over rice, or on a bed of greens.
Notes
Swap provolone with mozzarella, cheddar, or pepper jack for different flavors.
Use chicken thighs for a juicier option.
Add mushrooms for more heartiness.
Spice it up with hot peppers or crushed red pepper flakes.
Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days; avoid freezing.
