Ingredients
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 onion, sliced
4 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 cup pepperoncini peppers, sliced
1/2 cup chicken broth
1 cup heavy cream
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
-
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper, cooking them for 5-6 minutes per side until golden and cooked through.
-
Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside. In the same skillet, add the sliced onion and minced garlic. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened.
-
Add pepperoncini peppers, chicken broth, and heavy cream to the skillet. Bring to a simmer for 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to combine.
-
Return the chicken to the skillet and spoon the sauce over the top. Cook for an additional 5 minutes, letting the sauce thicken and the chicken absorb the flavors.
-
Serve with rice, vegetables, or any preferred side dishes.
Notes
-
For extra heat, add more pepperoncini peppers or hot sauce.
-
Make the dish dairy-free by substituting heavy cream with coconut milk.
-
Add fresh herbs like thyme or rosemary to elevate the flavor.
-
For added nutrition, include vegetables like spinach, mushrooms, or bell peppers during cooking.
