The concept of my “Thyme for Dinner” columm was actually conceived thanks to this Pepper Chicken dish. One evening, as I was going about the bedtime routine with my children, I came to the kitchen to check up on my peppers, when I found that the gas had shut off in the stove. Too tight for time to wait for my husband to figure out the malfunction, I took the saucepan to my neighbor and asked if our dinner could cook there. When I came to pick up the food 20 minutes later, its heavenly aroma was wafting through her apartment and she wouldn’t let me go until I gave her the recipe. When I finished listing my modest list of simple ingredients, she said, “I can’t believe that’s all it takes to put together something so gourmet.” So yes, here I am again, with a really simple yet delicious and wholesome dinner idea for you.

Ingredients

Main ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons Gefen Canola Oil

  • 2 red peppers, diced small

  • 1 yellow pepper, diced small

  • 1 tablespoon paprika

Tips:

I use the Progressive vegetable chopper to do the job for me. This fabulous gadget makes salad prep a breeze too.

Healthy, wholesome and so flavorful! I left out the zucchini, thyme and parsley and cut down on the salt. So delish!!
