Ok, here's the report. It was truly amazing. It was fast to make and really delicious.

I added 2 sliced scallions along with the peppers and didn't use cilantro (dh hates the stuff.)

The sauce was really good. It would be good on pasta even w/o the chicken.

I used fresh pasta because I had some in the house.

This is definitely something I would make again and again.

I just made it for supper. It was a big hit! Even DS ate it! well, atleast the sauce part. he wouldn't touch the peppers or chicken.

The only dif. is once the chicken & peppers were cooked, I poured the sauce into the pan & let it simmer a bit to get the flavor into the chicken.

where do I find fresh cilantro and what does it look like? do I have to clean it a certain way?
