A delightful Tuscan-inspired chicken dish featuring tender chicken, vibrant bell peppers, and a savory herb-infused sauce.
Season the chicken with salt and pepper on both sides.
Ensure the chicken is evenly seasoned for consistent flavor.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook until browned on both sides. Remove and set aside.
Avoid overcrowding the skillet to ensure proper browning.
In the same skillet, add the bell peppers and prosciutto. Cook until the peppers are softened and the prosciutto is crisp.
Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Be careful not to burn the garlic as it can turn bitter.
Stir in the tomatoes, white wine, thyme, and oregano. Scrape the bottom of the skillet to deglaze.
Deglazing adds depth to the sauce by incorporating the browned bits.
Return the chicken to the skillet. Cover and simmer until the chicken is cooked through, about 20 minutes.
Ensure the skillet is covered to retain moisture.
Stir in the capers and parsley before serving.
Add the parsley just before serving for a fresh flavor.
Serve the chicken with the sauce and enjoy.
Pair with a side of crusty bread to soak up the sauce.
