Instructions
Herb Marinated Chicken Breasts- In blender, combine olive oil, herbs and garlic. Blend until herbs reach a consistency of a pesto. Place chicken breasts in sealable bag with herb marinade and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- Preheat indoor grill to 230ºC (450ºF).
- Remove marinated chicken from bag and season with salt and pepper. Place on grill and cook 4-5 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked.
- Keep warm until ready to use.
- While the chicken is marinating, preheat a toaster oven to 180ºC (350ºF). Drizzle whole peppers with olive oil and place in the toaster oven. Roast peppers for 30 to 40 minutes, or until peppers are nicely roasted and skin has separated from the flesh. Remove roasted peppers from toaster oven and immediately transfer to a plastic bag and seal. Allow peppers to cool in bag.
- When peppers have cooled, remove from plastic bag. Remove seeds and skin, using paper towel. Set aside until ready to use.
