Chicken breast, skinless, raw

600 g

Onion

1 medium, thick slices

Red pepper

2 medium, deseeded and cut into strips

Green pepper

1 medium, deseeded and cut into strips

Garlic

2 clove(s), crushed

Balsamic vinegar

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 180°C, fan 160°C, gas mark 4 and mist a roasting tin with cooking spray. Put the chicken breasts in the tin and season.
  2. Mist a large nonstick frying pan with cooking spray and stir-fry the onion for a few minutes, adding a little water if it starts to stick, until softened. Add the peppers and garlic, stir-fry for a further minute, then add to the roasting tin.
