I started this blog so my daughters could find all of our family favourite recipes in one place. It has actually grown into more than just the family favourites but also other recipes we've tried out in our kitchen. I don't like to fill up the post with alot of chatter. Sometimes there's a little story to tell, but usually I like to get right to the point. So this is for them, but hope you find some recipes that you like as well. I'll be sharing a lot of recipes, and along the way you'll find some crafty things and maybe some helpful hints too! Welcome!

Sweet Pepper Chicken

Tender chicken breasts smothered in peppers and onion with a brothy tomato based sauce that's perfect with a good piece of crusty bread. This dinner for two is made with a handful of ingredients you probably have in your pantry now.

Ingredients:
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
3 tbsps olive oil, divided 
Montreal steak spice 
1 medium onion, sliced
2 sweet bell peppers, sliced 
2 tsps minced garlic
2 tbsps tomato paste
1 tsp smoked paprika 
1/2 tsp celery seed
1 cup chicken or vegetable broth

Heat 2 tbsps olive oil in a skillet. Generously sprinkle chicken with Montreal steak spice and brown in medium hot oil about 4 minutes per side. Remove to a plate.

Add 1 tbsp olive oil to the same skillet. Add onion and cook on medium to medium high heat and when onions are translucent add the garlic for 1 minute. Next toss in the peppers and cook 2-3 minutes.

Stir in the tomato paste, paprika, celery seed and broth. Return the chicken to the pan and nestle it into the onions, peppers and broth. Bring to a boil then reduce heat and simmer, covered for 20-25 minutes. After that time remove the cover and increase the temperature to medium high for 1-2 minutes to slightly reduce the liquid.
Serve with your favourite rice.
Serves 2
