• Sauté all of your peppers and onions in olive oil until crisp and aromatic.
• As soon as you finish sautéing the produce, remove container with chicken from the fridge and the lid. Add a generous amount of butter on top of the chicken and then empty your freshly sautéed produce into the container, secure the lid, and place back into the refrigerator for about 30 minutes.

• Pour the ingredients in the container (Wine, peppers and onions, etc) into the frying pan and place the frying pan on the middle rack of the oven for 15-20 minutes. (If you are only cooking one 2 breast halves, pour the entire container into the pan, otherwise, pour until the chicken is half immersed).
• After 15-20 minutes in the oven, remove pan and allow chicken to rest for about 5 minutes.
• Pour a portion of the white wine mixture from the pan over the chicken when you plate it for a little extra flavor as well as some of the peppers and onions. Chicken SHOULD be cooked perfectly every time, but ALWAYS check before eating.
