TGI Fridays sizzling chicken and cheese


This recipe is from the cookbook mom and dad got me for christmas last year called America's most wanted recipes: Favorite Restaurants. You need a cast iron which melts the cheese and melds everything but me and Josh both really enjoyed it. It makes a ton of veggies. I added marinara sauce to the leftover veggies for lunch or you could just make more chicken and potatoes to serve the whole family. I used red potatoes instead of russet because I love them a lot. The recpie serves 2.

Sizzling Chicken Skillet

2 4oz chicken breasts
marinade:
2 T chopped garlic
1/4 c olive oil
1tsp red pepper flakes
1/4 tsp black pepper
1/4 tsp salt
Veggies
1 green bell pepper cut in thin strips
1 red bell pepper cut in thin strips
1 onion cu tin thin strips
1/4 c olive oil
1 tsp chopped garlic
salt and pepper to taste

The rest
2 T olive oil
2 cups mashed potatoes
1/2 c shredded chihuahua cheese (it exists but is really hard to find use montery Jack)
2 slices American cheese (I think cheddar would have been a little better)
2 T chopped fresh parsley

1. Marinate chicken 3 hours
2. saute pepper and onions in olive oil add garlic near the end and season with a little salt and pepper.
3. Saute chicken in olive oil on all sides till cooked
4. Heat cast iron on burner until very hot.
5. place potatoes on skillet followed by the vegetables, cheese, chicken and garnish with fresh parsley. ( cheese should melt from the hot cast iron if unsure cover with foil for 1-2 min and the heat will melt everything)



Super yum!
