Honey Sweet Pepper Chicken image

This recipe and picture is from deepsouthdish.com. Toni T turned me on to this site, they have some good looking recipes. This is a colorful,and I'm sure flavorful chicken dish that would be easy to make.Toni suggested she would make it from chicken thighs and I agree. I would serve it with yellow rice ,a salad and vegetable.

Time 2h20m

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 to 6 boneless skinless chicken
2 c homemade or bottled italian dressing
2 t.fresh cajun or creole seasoning,to taste
1/4 c honey
1 c sliced green,yellow,and/or red peppers
1 c sliced onion

Steps:

  • 1. Whisk together the dressing, lime juice and Cajun seasoning in a large bowl. Tenderize chicken and flatten thicker ends. Place chicken in bowl, turning to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours. Heat oil in large skillet over medium high heat. Remove chicken breasts from the bowl, without draining, and transfer to the skillet, browning chicken on both sides and cooking in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan. Remove chicken and brush both sides with the honey; set aside. Add the onions and peppers to the skillet and cook for 2 minutes over medium. Reduce heat to medium low, return the chicken to the skillet and continue cooking, covered, until chicken is cooked through and reaches 165 degrees in the thickest part of the breast, turning a few times. Do not overcook! Uncover, turn to coat and transfer chicken to a serving platter. Serve over rice and pour the pan juices and peppers on top.

I would make this dish again, but I would make some changes to the recipe. I would use less honey, cook the chicken for a shorter amount of time, and thin out the sauce with some water or broth.

Overall, I thought this dish was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

The sauce is a bit too thick for my liking. I would recommend thinning it out with some water or broth.

I found the chicken to be a bit dry. I think it would be better if it was cooked for a shorter amount of time.

This dish is a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using less honey or adding some acidity, like lemon juice, to balance out the flavors.

I'm not a big fan of sweet and savory dishes, but I really enjoyed this one. The honey sauce is not too overpowering, and it pairs well with the peppers and chicken.

I wasn't sure how the honey and peppers would go together, but I was pleasantly surprised. The flavors complement each other perfectly.

This dish is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I often make a big batch of chicken on the weekend, and then use it to make this dish during the week.

I love that this recipe is so versatile. I've made it with different types of peppers, and it always turns out great. I also like to add a little bit of heat by adding some red pepper flakes.

The honey sauce is amazing! It's sweet, tangy, and has a hint of spice. I could eat it on anything.

I made this dish exactly as the recipe instructed, and it turned out perfectly. The chicken was cooked evenly throughout, and the sauce was thick and glossy. I will definitely be making this again.

I was pleasantly surprised by how easy this dish was to make. I was able to get dinner on the table in under 30 minutes, which is a lifesaver on busy weeknights.

This recipe has quickly become a favorite in my household. The chicken is tender and juicy, the peppers are crisp and flavorful, and the honey sauce is the perfect balance of sweet and savory. I highly recommend it!
