Steps

• Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
• In a small bowl, mix together the salt, black pepper, and paprika. Rub the chicken breasts with the spice mixture.
• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side until browned.
• Transfer the chicken breasts to a baking dish and bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until cooked through.
• While the chicken is baking, prepare the peppers. Heat olive oil in the same skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and minced garlic. Cook for 2-3 minutes until softened.
• Add the bell peppers to the skillet and season with salt and black pepper. Cook for 5-7 minutes until the peppers are tender-crisp.
• In a separate bowl, combine the diced tomatoes, red onion, jalapeno pepper, cilantro, lime juice, salt, and black pepper to make the salsa.
• Serve the baked chicken with the sautéed peppers and top with salsa.

Tips

• You can use boneless, skinless chicken thighs instead of chicken breasts for a juicier result.
• Feel free to adjust the amount of jalapeno pepper in the salsa according to your desired level of spiciness.
