Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 2 teaspoons Ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 medium Red bell pepper, sliced
- 1 medium Green bell pepper, sliced
- 1 medium Onion, sliced
- 1 cup Chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
Begin by seasoning the chicken breasts on both sides with salt and 1 teaspoon of ground black pepper.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the chicken breasts to the skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil.
Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the sliced red and green bell peppers, and onion. Sauté for about 5 minutes until the vegetables are tender.
Pour in the chicken broth and soy sauce, stirring to combine.
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch and water to make a slurry. Pour the slurry into the skillet and stir well.
Return the chicken breasts to the skillet and simmer on low heat for 5 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken and coat the chicken.
Sprinkle the remaining teaspoon of ground black pepper over the dish for an extra kick.
Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
Serve hot with your choice of side, such as rice or steamed vegetables.
