This is a quick version of Chicken Pesto that tastes pretty good. My son asks for it so that's a plus. Limited ingredients and a fast cook time makes it great for week nights. Ingredients:

8 slices provolone cheese, cut in strips |

Directions:
1. 1. Saute the onions & red pepper in olive oil until the onions are caramelized.
2. 2. Fry your Chicken Cutlets in pan with olive oil until cooked.
3. 2. In a baking pan sprinkle 2 tablespoons olive oil on the bottom of the pan.
