HOW DO I MAKE ROASTED PEPPER & GOAT CHEESE CHICKEN?
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F. Season your chicken breasts with salt & pepper. Bake for 10 minutes.
While the chicken is baking, thinly slice your bell peppers and set aside for now.
Remove chicken from the oven. Spread the herbed goat cheese over each of the breasts, then top with sliced peppers.
Return to the oven for another 15-20 minutes. (I like to turn on the broiler for the last few minutes to make sure the peppers are nice and tender).
Once your chicken is cooked through, remove and let it cool slightly before serving. Garnish with fresh parsley, if desired.
**USDA states that the internal temperature of the chicken should reach 165° for food safety
