I hoped to have this recipe up last week but had a bit of planning to do as we prepared to celebrate a very special occasion.
With that said…
Here’s a tasty chicken dish with peppers and tomatoes in a lemon-wine sauce (sort of a like a mediterranean stir fry). Serve this with brown rice or whole grain orzo (Tip: cooked in stock or bouillon for added flavor)
First, sauté the peppers and onions
Then, I sauté the chicken
Return peppers and onions and add the tomatoes and liquids until done
