Chicken Roasted In Red and Green Peppers

INGREDIENTS

6 boneless, skinless chicken breast
1/4 cup olive oil
3-4 garlic cloves, finely minced
1/2 cup fresh basil, finely chopped
salt
pepper
3 red peppers
3 green peppers

METHOD

  • Mix together the olive oil, garlic cloves, fresh basil, salt and pepper. Place chicken breasts in marinade and chill for approximately 4-6 hours.
  • Try to choose peppers which can almost stand on their ends by themselves. Slice the tops off the peppers and then carefully remove seeds and veins. Brush the insides of each pepper with olive oil and a little salt and pepper.
  • Roll up each chicken breast and insert into a pepper. Then stand each pepper in a baking dish.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for 50-60 minutes.

TIPS
  • Choose pepper of similar size to ensure even cooking time.
  • Sometimes red peppers cook faster than green, so be sure to test the peppers.
