Recipe For Chicken With Roasted Peppers
This Roasted Red Pepper Chicken skillet is a delicious and easy 30-minute meal of tender, pan-fried chicken breasts nestled in a creamy, lightly sweet red pepper sauce.
A home cook can never have too many quick and easy ways to dress up chicken breasts for dinner! This particular creamy red pepper chicken skillet is appealing because it feels a tiny bit elegant, yet can still be on the table in 30 minutes or less.
We love this roasted red pepper pasta for a creamy, lightly sweet change from traditional tomato-based sauces, so it was only a matter of time before we adapted the sauce just a bit to make it work with chicken breasts. Both of these recipes are great reasons to keep a jar of roasted red peppers tucked in your pantry: they’re one of those ingredients that can punch well above their weight to add flavor and interest to everyday meals.

Yes! Red peppers have many health benefits, including generous amounts of vitamins A and C; antioxidants, especially carotenoids; and minerals such as folate, iron, and potassium. Peppers are also a good source of fiber, which is good for your digestive system and can help you feel fuller, longer.
It is true that the heat of roasting can cause peppers to lose some of their vitamin C, but on the flip side, the heat can break down cell walls, making their carotenoids easier for the body to absorb. Bottom line: peppers are a nutritious, and very tasty, addition to your family’s diet.
Oven Roasted Lemon Pepper Chicken
You’ll begin by seasoning both sides of the chicken with salt, pepper, and dried oregano, then browning them in a skillet slicked with olive oil. Remove from the pan when browned and set aside on a plate.
Meanwhile, toss your peppers, garlic, more dried oregano, salt, pepper, and a smidge of olive oil into a blender or food processor and blitz into a mostly smooth consistency. It will have the most gorgeous red color.
Now it’s a simple matter of making the sauce in the same pan that you used for the chicken. This not only ensures minimal clean-up, it also ensures maximum flavor, because any browned bits and seasonings left behind from the chicken make their way straight into your sauce.

Pair this chicken with breadsticks, garlic bread, or rolls–the better to soak up any little bits of the irresistible sauce from the corners of plates! For an attractive presentation, you can also place individual chicken breasts on top of couscous or rice. Round out the meal with steamed broccoli or asparagus, or an easy Italian salad.
