Instructions

Step 1: Cook the Chicken

  1. Heat olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  2. Add thinly sliced chicken, season with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and Italian seasoning.
  3. Cook for 5–6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

Step 3: Combine & Melt the Cheese

  1. Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and mix with the peppers and onions.
  2. Lay provolone cheese slices over the top, cover with a lid, and let it melt for 1–2 minutes.

Step 4: Serve & Enjoy
