Balsamic Chicken and Peppers
Ingredients
  • 1/4 cup olive oil, divided
  • 4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - cut into strips
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1 yellow bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1 orange bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
  • 4 large cloves garlic, finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon dried basil
  • 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar, divided
Instructions
1
Collect and prepare all the necessary ingredients for this dish.
2
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and sprinkle with salt and pepper; cook, stirring occasionally, until it reaches a golden brown color, taking approximately 3 to 5 minutes. Remove the chicken from the skillet and place it in a separate bowl, setting it aside for now.
3
Use the remaining olive oil to heat up the skillet again. Add sliced bell peppers and onions, stirring occasionally as they cook until tender, taking around 3 minutes.
4
Add minced garlic to the skillet and stir constantly as it cooks until fragrant. Next, add 2 tablespoons of balsamic vinegar and chopped basil; stir well to combine.
5
Return the chicken back into the skillet. Reduce the heat to a low setting, cover it with a lid, and let it simmer for about 20 minutes or until the chicken is no longer pink and the juices run clear.
6
Just before serving, stir in the remaining 2 tablespoons of balsamic vinegar to add a tangy flavor to the dish.
