Delicious and simple. I made this just for myself with a smaller chicken breast. I used a couple of tablespoons of the roasted red peppers. I also used extra salt and pepper and Italian seasoning. I pounded my chicken breast so it would cook evenly in the pan. I think another option would be to bake this with the sauce. Anyways, it was full of flavor and just great!
