Cook sliced bell pepper in skillet for 3–4 minutes until tender. Add chopped tomatoes, their juices, olives, dry oregano, basil, and red pepper flakes when using. Simmer the combination for 5-7 minutes to blend the flavors and thicken the sauce.
While the sauce simmers, make pappardelle al dente per package instructions. Drain and set aside. Return the chicken breasts to the skillet and nestle them in the thickened sauce. Let them heat for two minutes.
