  • Preheat oven to 375° F.
  • Place a layer of thinly sliced Prime Time bell peppers or Prime Time sweet mini peppers on the bottom of a 9" x 12" casserole dish.
  • Lay the chicken breasts on top, so the peppers will cook underneath.

  • Bake, uncovered, for 20–30 minutes until the chicken is fully cooked.
