I made this for dinner tonight and thought it was pretty tasty. I made a few alterations and will make a few more next time. First I used Splenda with a bit of sugar free maple syrup instead of brown sugar. Instead of the bell peppers, I chopped up some zucchini and added a few shakes of dried red pepper flakes. This mixture reminded me a little bit of Chicken Mole. Next time I am going to cut down on the sauce ingredients by half as this makes things really saucy! I served this over cracked bulgur wheat. I’ll make this again. Thanks for the unusual but very tasty recipe. updated.. still making this recipe.. 12 years later I decided to take a picture. I did only make half the sauce and this time I used the peppers on top… I think I’d prefer them cooked, but that just my preference. The chicken also tasted very good cold
i made this as stated in the recipe but i should have altered it a bit. or alot. not so good.
I thought this recipe was wonderful. It was like an Asian mole!
