Main Ingredients
- 4 whole bell peppers red or yellow, halved and seeded
- 1.5 pounds chicken breast diced
- 1 cup marinara sauce
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 0.5 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoon salt

Preparation Steps
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).

- Place bell pepper halves in a baking dish. Fill each half with the chicken mixture, then top with mozzarella and Parmesan cheese.

- Garnish with fresh basil before serving.

For a spicier dish, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the chicken mixture.
