Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a medium casserole dish. (5 minutes)

02

Step

Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a skillet over medium heat, and cook the chicken until juices run clear. (8-10 minutes)

03

Step

Puree the roasted red peppers in a blender or food processor until smooth. In the prepared casserole dish, mix the cooked chicken, roasted red peppers, tomatoes, mushrooms, onion, and garlic. Season with salt and pepper. Drizzle with remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, and top with mozzarella cheese. (10 minutes)

04

Step

Bake 30 minutes in the preheated oven, until cheese is melted and bubbly. (30 minutes)

Feel free to adjust the amount of vegetables to your liking. For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of cumin or smoked paprika.
Serve hot over a bed of fluffy rice or alongside crusty bread to soak up the delicious sauce.
