A delicious and cheesy baked chicken dish with colorful bell peppers, perfect for weeknight dinners.

  • Total Time: 45 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale

To create this cheesy delight, gather the following ingredients:

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 cups bell peppers (mixed colors for a vibrant presentation)
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 cup cream of chicken soup
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Olive oil for drizzling

These ingredients are easily accessible and can be found at your local grocery store. I love using fresh bell peppers, but frozen ones work just as well, especially for quick weeknight meals!

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Season the chicken breasts with garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
  3. Sauté the bell peppers in a skillet with olive oil until tender, about 5 minutes.
  4. In a baking dish, layer the seasoned chicken, sautéed peppers, cream of chicken soup, and sprinkle mozzarella cheese on top.
  5. Cover with foil and bake for 25 minutes, then remove foil and bake for another 10 minutes until chicken is cooked and cheese is bubbly.
  6. Let rest for a few minutes before serving warm.

Notes

  • Frozen bell peppers can be used for convenience.
  • Feel free to add other veggies or spices according to your taste.
