Banana peppers are very popular in my household. Even my youngest, who does not like spicy things, likes banana peppers and this chicken.  

Italian Banana Pepper Chicken: Savory Sweet and Satisfying

I love spicy foods and do not find banana peppers very spicy. I find them flavorful with maybe a very small hint of spiciness. The flavor from the banana peppers adds so much to this chicken.

Italian Banana Pepper Chicken

Ingredients:

  • 3 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 12 ounce jar sliced banana peppers
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, sliced
  • 4 ounces mozarella cheese, shredded

Directions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 375º F.
  2. Coat both sides of the chicken breasts with olive oil and then season both sides with the Italian seasoning, garlic powder and onion powder.
  3. Place the chicken into a baking dish and place desired amount of banana peppers on top. Top with slices of butter.
  4. Bake for 20 minutes or until almost completely cooked.
  5. Remove the baking dish and top with the shredded cheese. Bake for an additional 10 minutes or until the cheese has melted.
  6. Place the chicken under the broiler for 2-3 minutes to brown the cheese, if desired.
