TOTAL:
40 minutes
INGREDIENTS:
• 2 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves,
trimmed of visible fat and cut in half horizontally
to make 4 thin pieces
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 4 ounces bacon, cut into 1-inch pieces
• 6 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 red bell pepper, cored, seeded, cut into 1-inch strips
• 1 yellow bell pepper, cored, seeded, cut into 1-inch strips
• 2 15-ounce cans no-salt-added diced tomatoes with juice
INSTRUCTIONS:
In large non-stick skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Salt and pepper both sides of the
chicken pieces. Brown the chicken 2-3 minutes per side until browned but not cooked through.
Set the chicken aside and keep warm.
In the same skillet, cook the bacon until browned and crispy, 7-8 minutes. Add the garlic and bell
pepper slices to the skillet, season with salt and pepper and stir. Cook, stirring occasionally, until
the peppers begin to soften, about 3 minutes. Add the tomatoes with the juice to the skillet and
bring to a boil, about 5 minutes.
Add the chicken back to the pan and cover in the tomato mixture. Cover the pan and cook for 10-15
minutes or until the chicken is done in the center. Serve the chicken covered in the peppers and sauce.
