Ingredients

Instructions

1. Prepare the Bell Peppers
   Start by washing and cleaning the bell peppers. Remove the stems and seeds, then cut them into small cubes. This will allow the peppers to cook evenly and infuse the dish with flavor.

2. Cook the Peppers
   In a frying pan, heat a bit of extra virgin olive oil over medium heat. Add a whole, peeled garlic clove for fragrance. Once the oil is hot, add the chopped bell peppers and season with a pinch of salt. Sauté the peppers for about 7-8 minutes, stirring occasionally until they soften and release their natural juices.

3. Blend the Sauce
   Transfer the cooked peppers and sun-dried tomatoes (with their oil) to a blender or food processor. Blend until you have a smooth, creamy sauce. If the mixture is too thick, you can add a little bit of water to achieve the desired consistency.

4. Prepare the Chicken Bites
   In a shallow bowl, place some all-purpose flour. Dredge the chicken breast pieces in the flour, making sure they are well-coated. This helps to create a nice sear and adds to the richness of the sauce.

5. Cook the Chicken Bites
   In the same pan used for the peppers, add the floured chicken bites. Sauté the chicken for about 5 minutes, turning occasionally to ensure they cook evenly. If needed, add more olive oil to prevent sticking.

6. Deglaze and Finish Cooking
   Once the chicken is slightly browned, deglaze the pan with the dry white wine. Allow the wine to reduce slightly. If the sauce becomes too thick, add 2 tablespoons of water to loosen it up. Let the chicken cook for an additional 7-8 minutes, ensuring it is cooked through and tender.

7. Serve
   Once the chicken is perfectly cooked and coated in the creamy pepper and sun-dried tomato sauce, serve immediately. This dish pairs beautifully with a side of rice, mashed potatoes, or crusty bread to soak up the rich sauce.
