Ingredients
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup cottage cheese
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 cup bell peppers, diced (mix of colors for a vibrant dish)
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Equipment Needed
- Large skillet
- Sharp knife
- Cutting board
- Measuring cups and spoons
- Spatula or wooden spoon
Step-by-Step Instructions
To start, I heat the olive oil in my large skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is shimmering, I add the chicken breasts, seasoned with salt, pepper, and paprika. It’s so satisfying to hear that sizzle as they hit the pan! I cook these for about 6-7 minutes on each side, until they are golden brown and cooked through. Don’t forget to check that they have reached at least 165°F for safety! (See the next page below to continue steps…)
