Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 ½ pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts, thinly sliced
  • 1 green bell pepper sliced
  • 1 red bell pepper sliced
  • 1 small onion sliced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
  • ½ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 4 slices provolone cheese

Method
 

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and bell peppers, cooking until softened, about 5 minutes. Remove from the pan and set aside.
  2. In the same skillet, add the remaining olive oil. Add the sliced chicken and season with garlic powder, salt, black pepper, smoked paprika, and Worcestershire sauce. Cook for 7-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until fully cooked and slightly browned.
  3. Return the sautéed onions and peppers to the skillet. Stir everything together, allowing the flavors to meld for 2 minutes.
  4. Place the provolone slices on top of the chicken mixture. Cover the skillet and let the cheese melt for 1-2 minutes.

Notes

  • Make-Ahead: Prep the veggies and chicken in advance for quick cooking.
  • Storage: Keep leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
  • Reheat: Warm in a skillet over low heat or microwave until heated through.
