Step 1TO MAKE THE CHICKEN: Preheat the oven to 400°F.

Step 2Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 3Lay the butterflied chicken breasts flat on a work surface. Cover them with the olive oil, seasoned salt, and pepper.

Step 4Divide the red pepper strips, cream cheese, and onion slices between the chicken breasts, placing them down the center of each breast. Roll up the chicken breasts and place them on the lined baking sheet, seam-side down.

Step 5Bake until the chicken is cooked through, about 40 minutes.

Step 6TO MAKE THE SAUCE: Meanwhile, in a medium skillet, heat the ghee over medium heat. When it is hot, add the roasted red pepper, onion, and garlic and cook for 5 minutes. Stir in the heavy cream, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper and simmer, stirring frequently, until the sauce has reduced by half, about 10 minutes.

Step 7To serve, plate the cooked chicken and spoon the sauce over it.
