Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a bowl, combine the chicken breast with olive oil, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, paprika, and red pepper flakes. Mix well to coat the chicken evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Cooking

  1. 2

    Cook the Chicken

    Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the marinated chicken breast and cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until the chicken is cooked through and golden brown. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

  2. 3

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In the same skillet, add the chopped onion and bell peppers. Sauté for about 5 minutes until they are tender and slightly caramelized.

  3. 4

    Combine and Serve

    Slice the cooked chicken and add it back to the skillet with the sautéed vegetables. Toss in fresh basil and stir to combine. Serve hot.
