Chicken Diablo is a spicy and flavorful dish typically made with chicken, peppers, onions, and a variety of spices such as cayenne pepper, paprika, and chili powder. It's known for its bold and fiery flavors, perfect for those who enjoy a bit of heat in their meals.
Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, paprika, and chili powder.
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook until browned on both sides, about 5-6 minutes per side. Remove chicken from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add a bit more olive oil if needed. Add the sliced peppers, onions, and garlic. Cook until the vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes.
Stir in the diced tomatoes (with their juices), cayenne pepper, and additional salt and pepper to taste.
Add the chicken back to the skillet, nestling it into the vegetable mixture. Cover and let simmer for 10-15 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
Serve the Chicken Diablo hot, garnished with fresh cilantro. You can pair it with rice, quinoa, or a side of crusty bread.
