Easy Cheesy Chicken Chili
Ingredients
· 2 tablespoons olive oil
· 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro leaves, plus a few whole leaves for garnish
· 1 tablespoon chili powder
· 1 tablespoon ground cumin
· 2 teaspoons kosher salt
· 1 clove garlic, chopped
· 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
· 1/8 teaspoon cayenne
· 4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves (about 2 pounds)
· 1/4 cup julienned green bell pepper
· 2 tablespoons diced red onion
· 1 medium plum tomato, cored and diced (about 1/4 cup)
· 4 ounces shredded Colby-Jack cheese
Directions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Whisk together the oil, chopped cilantro, chili powder, cumin, salt, garlic, pepper, and cayenne in a bowl; add the chicken and toss to coat.
Transfer chicken to a foil-lined baking sheet and arrange the green pepper, onion, and tomato over each. Roast until the largest piece is just cooked through, and an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part reads 165 degrees F, about 20 minutes.
Remove the chicken from oven
