  • Author: Chef Ethan Sam
  • Total Time: 37 minute

Ingredients

– 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
– 2 cups bell peppers (mixed colors, sliced)
– 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
– 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
– 1 tablespoon olive oil
– 2 teaspoons garlic powder
– 1 teaspoon onion powder
– 1 teaspoon paprika
– Salt and pepper to taste
– Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish, optional)


Instructions

Creating Cheesy Baked Chicken Breast and Peppers is an easy process. Follow these simple steps to achieve delicious results:

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Prepare the Chicken: Place the chicken breasts on a cutting board. Pat them dry with paper towels and season both sides with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika.
3. Sauté the Peppers: In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced bell peppers and sauté for about 5 minutes until they start to soften. Remove from heat and set aside.
4. Arrange in Baking Dish: In a baking dish, lay the seasoned chicken breasts in a single layer. Scatter the sautéed peppers evenly over the chicken.
5. Add Cheese: Sprinkle the mozzarella and cheddar cheese generously over the chicken and peppers.
6. Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the cheese is bubbly and golden.
7. Check Doneness: Ensure the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C). Use a meat thermometer for accuracy.
8. Garnish and Serve: Once done, remove from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley, if desired.

These straightforward steps will guide you to a delightful and cheesy main dish that your family will adore!
