  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • 1 yellow onion, diced
  • 2 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup sliced pepperoncini
  • 12 oz roasted red peppers
  • 2 boneless chicken breasts, sliced
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1/4 cup fontina cheese, shredded

Directions

  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Season the chicken with the Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Sear for 4-5 minutes on each side until the chicken is golden brown. Remove and set aside.
