Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts – diced into bite-sized pieces
- 2 tablespoons olive oil – for sautéing the chicken and vegetables
- 1 medium onion – sliced thinly for sweetness
- 1 green bell pepper – sliced for crunch and color
- 1 red bell pepper – sliced for added sweetness
- 1 cup sliced mushrooms – for an earthy flavor
- 2 cloves garlic – minced for aromatic goodness
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning – to enhance the flavor
- Salt and pepper – to taste
- 1 cup provolone cheese – shredded for that melty goodness
- 1/4 cup heavy cream – to create a rich sauce
- Fresh parsley – chopped, for garnish
Instructions
- Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced chicken breasts, season with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning, and cook for about 5-7 minutes until browned and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the sliced onion, green bell pepper, red bell pepper, and sliced mushrooms. Sauté for about 5-6 minutes until tender. Add minced garlic and cook for an additional minute.
- Return the cooked chicken to the skillet, pour in 1/4 cup of heavy cream, and stir to combine.
- Sprinkle 1 cup of shredded provolone cheese over the mixture, cover the skillet, and reduce heat to low. Cook for about 3-4 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
Notes
- Use a large skillet to ensure even cooking.
- Cut chicken into uniform pieces for even cooking.
- Monitor heat to prevent burning vegetables.
- Cover the skillet to melt cheese evenly.
