Directions to Prepare Chicken Peppers

Make this healthy chicken dish with a lot of nutritional benefits in easy, quick, and simple steps:

Step 1

Take a cast iron skillet and put it on a stove with medium to high heat on the other side get a large bowl and put all the seasonings and the chicken in it then mix everything to combine well.

Step 2

Then add olive oil to the skillet following the chicken, put the chicken with skin side down in the skillet, and cook for about 4-6 minutes or till it is brown. After it is brown flip the side of the chicken and cook again for about 1 minute make sure not to cook the chicken thoroughly at this stage.

Step 3

Now remove the skillet from the stove and add the following ingredients then mix well everything to combine:

  • Peppers
  • Onions
  • Garlic
  • Paprika
  • Red Chili Flaks
  • Salt and Pepper

Step 4

Then arrange the chicken on top of the onions and peppers in a tray and set your oven for baking ensuring to set its temperature to 400 degrees F and bake for about 20 minutes till the chicken gets the inside temperature of 165 degrees your chicken peppers are ready to enjoy serve it immediately.

Expert Tips

  • You can use an instant-read thermometer which is a very useful tool to check the internal temperature of the chicken.
  • To cook the bell peppers and the onions evenly cut them into small same size pieces.
  • If you want to enjoy it on your own then you can enjoy it with steam broccoli which is a very healthy choice.
  • You can use chicken breasts or boneless thighs but I like bone-in chicken which gives moist and juicy chicken with extra flavor to the dish.

Leftovers Treatment

Store

If you want to store just ensure to put chicken peppers in an air-tight pot mostly I use an air-tight glass jar which is easy to clean.

Freeze

You can freeze this dish but I recommend you not to freeze because the chicken is not crispy after freezing as it was before at the time of cooking.

Reheating

Air fryer or the oven is the best choice for reheating that keeps your chicken tender, and skin crispy while onions and peppers give a wonderful taste.
