Ingredients
3 pieces chicken breast
1 red bell pepper, sliced
1 orange bell pepper, sliced
1 yellow bell pepper, sliced
1 medium red onion, sliced
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 teaspoons paprika
¼ teaspoon garlic granules
¼ teaspoon onion granules
½ teaspoon dried parsley
¼ teaspoon dried thyme
½ teaspoon black pepper, or to taste
Salt, to taste
2 tablespoons olive oil
¼ to ½ cup chicken stock
Instructions
- In a small bowl, mix together paprika, garlic granules, onion granules, parsley, thyme, black pepper, and salt.
- Pat chicken breasts dry and season with half of the seasoning mixture.
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add chicken and cook for 4–5 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add sliced onions, minced garlic, and bell peppers. Add the remaining seasoning and sauté until vegetables are tender and slightly crisp.
- Return the chicken to the skillet and pour in ¼ to ½ cup of chicken stock based on desired sauciness.
- Simmer for 2–3 minutes until the chicken is fully cooked (internal temperature 165°F).
- Remove from heat and serve warm.
Notes
Use boneless chicken thighs for a juicier texture.
Add chili flakes or cayenne for more heat.
Swap seasonings for Italian, jerk, or other blends.
Make it vegetarian by using tofu or plant-based alternatives.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
