This peperonate sauced chicken breast recipe isn’t set in stone. You can customize this chicken recipe really easy.

For instance most of you know I don’t drink alcohol. Although am okay cooking with alcohol some people are not. So there is an option in most of my recipes to use wine or stock.

Another way to make this Italian flavored chicken recipe your own is to use boneless chicken thighs.

One more thing, if you want to make this peperonata sauced chicken breast a complete meal cook your favorite shaped pasta and toss in the peperonata sauce. If your going to use this Italian bell pepper sauce for a pasta sauce double all the ingredients except for the chicken breast. Also be sure your saute pa is big enough and deep enough.
