A welcome change from traditional spaghetti and meatballs! I got this recipe from Campbell's website, and made some of my own changes, which are listed below. This is a big hit with my family and have been asked to make it often. I have occasionally substituted the chicken with sausage and it came out just as great!

- Marinate the chicken: Marinating the chicken in a mixture of olive oil, herbs, and spices will help to tenderize and flavor it.
- Use ripe, fresh bell peppers: Bell peppers come in a variety of colors, each with a slightly different flavor. Choose ripe, firm peppers with bright colors.
