Ingredients:

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

1 1/2 teaspoons chili powder

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon onion powder

1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika

1 large red bell pepper, sliced

1 large yellow bell pepper, sliced

1 cup Monterey Jack cheese, shredded

1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped (optional)

1 jalapeño, thinly sliced (optional for extra heat)

1 tablespoon lime juice

Directions:

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9×13 inch baking dish with olive oil.

Season chicken breasts with salt, pepper, chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, and smoked paprika.

Heat remaining olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear chicken until golden, 3-4 minutes per side.

Place chicken in the baking dish, surround with sliced peppers, and pour any leftover oil from the skillet over.

Sprinkle shredded cheese over the chicken and peppers. Add jalapeño slices if desired.

Bake for 25 minutes or until chicken is cooked through and cheese is golden and bubbly.

Squeeze lime juice over the dish and garnish with cilantro. #love#loveit#food#bettermealrecipes#foodie#yummyfood
