Instructions

  1. 1

    Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the sliced chicken, season with salt and black pepper, and cook for 4–5 minutes until browned and cooked through. Remove chicken and set aside.

  2. 2

    Add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil to the same skillet. Add the onions and bell peppers. Cook, stirring often, for 4–5 minutes until softened.

  3. 3

    Stir in the garlic, smoked paprika, sweet paprika, oregano, and crushed red pepper (if using). Cook for 1 minute until fragrant.

  4. 4

    Return the cooked chicken to the skillet. Pour in the white wine (or chicken broth), scrape up any browned bits, and cook for 2–3 minutes until the sauce slightly reduces.

  5. 5

    Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper as needed. Remove from heat and stir in the chopped parsley.

  6. 6

    Serve hot with lemon wedges on the side and enjoy!
