An incredible Sweet and Sour Chicken and Bell Peppers recipe that is quick and easy, but also SO delicious!
Do you love Bell Peppers as much as I do? They come in so many gorgeous colors and add such a vibrancy and beauty and freshness to recipes.
We’ve already done our first date with a whopping 21 Bell Pepper recipes and I made Garlic and Roasted Bell Pepper Farfalle. You can find the rest of the great recipes linked up there.
We are having so much fun with our #PepperParty and today is the 2nd round of awesome Bell Pepper recipes.
One of the best and coolest things about our #pepperparty was that, not only did you get some amazing Bell Pepper recipes, there were prizes to win too.
For today’s Bell Pepper recipe, I wanted to keep with my quick & easy theme, so I came up with a recipe that can be made with store bought items or made homemade. We do both.
Obviously homemade tastes better, but when you’re looking for a great recipe for a busy weeknight, this Sweet and Sour Chicken and Bell Peppers is the perfect choice!
