- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 bell pepper, sliced
- 1 small onion, sliced
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste

- Prepare the chicken by seasoning the thighs with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Drizzle olive oil over them, ensuring they are well-coated.
- Sauté the sliced onions and bell peppers in a skillet over medium heat with a bit more olive oil for about 5 minutes or until softened.
