Ingredients

  • 4 pieces chicken breasts
  • 1 medium red bell pepper

  • 1 medium yellow bell pepper
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Directions

Step 1

Place the chicken breasts between two sheets of plastic wrap and pound to an even thickness.

Step 2

In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, oregano, salt, black pepper, and lemon juice.

Step 7

Grill the bell peppers alongside the chicken, turning occasionally, until they are tender and slightly charred.

Remove chicken and bell peppers from the grill and let the chicken rest for a few minutes.

Slice the chicken and serve with the grilled bell peppers.
