    Source of Recipe


    Ron

    Recipe Introduction


    Makes 4 servings

    Peperonata is an Italian mixture of sweet peppers, onions and garlic cooked in olive oil. Look for peppers that are firm, thick-fleshed and bright in color. Peppers contain twice as much vitamin C as oranges and are high in vitamin A and fiber. One-half cup of raw pieces contains only 14 calories.



    List of Ingredients




    1 tablespoon olive oil or vegetable oil
    1 medium red bell pepper, cut into strips
    1 medium green bell pepper, cut into strips
    3/4 cup onion slices (about 1 medium onion)
    2 cloves garlic, minced
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    1/4 teaspoon black pepper
    4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (about 1 pound)
    4 small French rolls, split and toasted

    Recipe




    1. Heat oil in large nonstick skillet over medium heat until hot. Add bell peppers, onion and garlic; cook and stir 5 minutes. Reduce heat to low; cook and stir about 20 minutes or until vegetables are very soft. Sprinkle with salt and black pepper.
    2. Grill chicken on covered grill over medium-hot coals 10 minutes on each side or until chicken is no longer pink in center. Or, broil chicken, 6 inches from heat source, 7 to 8 minutes on each side or until chicken is no longer pink in center.
    3. Place chicken in rolls. Divide bell pepper mixture evenly; spoon over chicken.
