What do you do when you have a little leftover chicken from last night's dinner? You turn it into a breakfast bake of course, a Chicken Breakfast Bake that can be eaten right out of the baking dish - which is a big plus in my eyes (because, less dishes...).

Cody and I had some Quick Chicken Al Forno one night and cooked 2 extra chicken breasts in case the first two wasn't enough. They turned out to be more than enough and we were left with two sad little chicken breasts that needed to be eaten.

After rummaging through the fridge for a few minutes, we found two little pieces of red and green bell peppers, an onion, a jalapeño pepper, cheese and two eggs. A perfect combination!

Tips and Tricks:

1. This recipe is great with leftover chicken, but can also be done with raw chicken. Season the chicken with ½tsp of ground coriander, ½ teaspoon of paprika, salt and pepper. Toss it in the pan with the vegetable in the first step and cook for about 10 minutes. Then proceed with the next step.
