Ingredients
Scale
- 3–4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1.5 lbs)
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tsp dried oregano
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 mixed bell peppers (red, yellow, or green), sliced
- 4–5 cloves fresh garlic, minced
Instructions
- Preheat Your Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Prepare a large oven-safe skillet.
- Season the Chicken: Drizzle olive oil over the chicken breasts. Season both sides generously with salt, pepper, and oregano.
- Sear the Chicken: Heat olive oil in the skillet over medium-high heat. Add seasoned chicken and sear for 5-7 minutes per side until golden brown.
- Add the Vegetables: Surround the chicken with sliced bell peppers and minced garlic. Stir to combine.
- Roast Together: Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and roast for 20-25 minutes until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C) and vegetables are tender-crisp.
- Serve: Let rest for a few minutes before slicing. Serve directly from the skillet or on plates, drizzled with any remaining juices.
