I'm posting this, as I've had it the last three Tuesdays (dh has band practice, and wouldn't eat this if I made it for "us") and I'm telling you, it's the best. At the risk of sounding like a food obsessed woman, I couldn't wait to get home today and start cooking for myself!
2 tbs butter 2 tbs olive oil 2 red bell peppes, cored, seeded and thinly sliced 2 large cloves of garlic, chopped
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts all purpose flour 1 cup chicken broth 1/4 dry white wine 2 tblsp. chopped fresh parsley hand grated romano or parmesan whole wheat penne
melt butter with oil in large skillet over med-high heat. Add peppers and garlic and saute until tender. Using slotted spoon, transfer peppers to side bowl;
Season chicken with S&P. Sprinkle flour over chicken evenly. Add chicken to skillet,, and saute until brown, about 3 mins. per side. Transfer chicken to holding plate. Return peppers/garlic to skillet, add broth and wine. Increase heat to high. Bring to boil until liquid thickens to sauce consistency, scraping up brown bits about 5-7 mins. Return chicken to skillet, and cook until chicken is cooked through. Season with S & P, and toss with cooked whole wheat penne or pasta of your choice. Sprinkle with parsley, and grated cheese.
I cut this in half for me and take the other portion to lunch. For such a simple dish, the flavors are really complex and full bodied. Great use of those summer red peppers!!!!
