Ingredients
  

4 boneless chicken thighs

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 red bell pepper, sliced

1 yellow bell pepper, sliced

1 green bell pepper, sliced

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

Salt and pepper to taste

1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar

Fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions
 

Start by patting the chicken thighs dry with paper towels. Season both sides generously with salt, pepper, smoked paprika, and Italian seasoning.

    Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the chicken thighs and sear for about 5-7 minutes on each side until they are golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F). Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

      In the same skillet, add the sliced bell peppers and sauté for about 4-5 minutes until they start to soften. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.

        Return the chicken thighs to the skillet with the peppers. Drizzle the balsamic vinegar over the mixture, stirring gently to combine, and cook for another 2-3 minutes to heat through.

          Taste and adjust seasoning if needed, then remove from heat.

            Garnish with fresh parsley before serving. This dish is wonderful on its own, or served over a bed of rice, quinoa, or alongside a simple green salad.
