Time 30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
½ onion, diced
½ green bell pepper, diced
¼ cup all-purpose flour
salt and ground black pepper to taste
2 large skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, pounded thin
½ lime, juiced
4 roma (plum) tomatoes, diced
1 pinch dried oregano
2 tablespoons water
4 slices provolone cheese

Steps:

  • Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat; saute onion and green bell pepper until tender, 5 to 10 minutes.
  • Mix flour, salt, and pepper together in a gallon-size resealable bag. Cut each pounded chicken breast in half and add to flour mixture; toss to coat.
  • Place coated chicken into skillet with onion mixture. Cook until chicken is browned, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Drizzle lime juice over chicken mixture.
  • Stir tomatoes and oregano into chicken mixture, cover skillet with a lid, and cook until tomatoes soften, sauce thickens, and chicken is no longer pink in the center, 5 to 10 minutes. Add water if needed. Top each piece of chicken with a slice of provolone cheese and serve with the tomato sauce.

This recipe was a bit too bland for my taste. I added some extra spices and it was much better.

I followed the recipe exactly and the chicken turned out dry. I'm not sure what I did wrong. The sauce was good though.

This dish was a bit too spicy for me, but my husband loved it. He said the chicken was cooked perfectly and the sauce was delicious. I would make it again, but I would use less chili powder next time.

This recipe was easy to follow and the chicken turned out great. I used boneless, skinless chicken breasts and they cooked in about 20 minutes. The sauce was also very good. I served it over rice and it was a perfect meal.
