DH and I love this chicken! I cut the recipe in half and left out the green pepper (as I really dislike bell peppers). The flavours are really good and the nutritional numbers are just what I was looking for. Low fat and low sodium. Thank you so much for sharing. I made this for New Kids on the Block tag game.
