I always use boneless chicken breasts. That being said…. even my 5 year old loves this recipe. I keep frozen roasted assorted bell peppers on hand, so this is a go-to dinner. Quick and I always have all the ingredients on hand without a trip to the store for missing ingredients. Love this! Makes the kitchen smell sooooo good.

I loved this recipe. I roasted the peppers on my gas grill, not in the oven. Next time I make it though, I am going to substitute more bell pepper for the poblano pepper. I really liked the extra kick it gave, but the wife complained that it was too spicy.

As a new stay-at-home Dad, I’m trying my hand at cooking. This dish is so tasty, and I’ve cooked it a couple times now with rave reviews from all. The only thing that takes a while to master(for me anyway) was roasting the peppers in the oven. It takes a little longer to make than most of the recipies in the EASY category, but it is well worth it.
