1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon garlic powder

Chicken Breading

1 cup italian breadcrumbs
3 large eggs

Prep chicken

Season chicken with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
Beat eggs and buttermilk together. Place breadcrumbs on a plate. Dip the chicken in the egg wash, then into the breadcrumbs, and repeat.
Set the chicken aside. Prepare a pan with oil and heat it to medium. Fry the chicken until cooked all the way through.

Prep Bell Peppers

Preheat the oven to 400°F.
Split the bell peppers in half lengthwise.
Add a little marinara sauce to the bottom of the bell peppers. Slice the fried chicken and place the pieces on top. Drizzle with a little more sauce, then top with mozzarella cheese. Garnish with Italian seasoning.
Repeat the process for the remaining bell peppers. Place them in the oven for 25-30 minutes.
Remove from the oven and serve.

Notes

Ingredient Swap: I often use a mix of red, yellow, and orange bell peppers; the different colors really pop on the plate and make the meal feel extra special.
