Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 4

4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
2 cups Italian-style salad dressing
1 (16 ounce) jar roasted red bell peppers, drained and patted dry with paper towels
4 slices mozzarella cheese, 1/4 inch thick

Steps:

  • Place the chicken breasts into a 1-gallon plastic zipper bag; pour in the Italian dressing. Squeeze air out of the bag, and seal. Refrigerate 4 to 6 hours to marinate.
  • Pour the dressing into a large skillet over medium heat, and bring to a boil. Lay the chicken pieces into the dressing, and cook until the dressing reduces and the chicken is lightly browned, about 10 minutes per side.
  • Preheat the oven's broiler and set the oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil; place the chicken breasts onto the foil-lined sheet. Place a generous layer of roasted red peppers on each chicken breast; top with a slice of cheese. Broil the chicken until the cheese is browned and bubbling, 1 to 2 minutes.
