Directions
1. To make the bell peppers chicken bake: Preheat your oven to 400˚F (200ºC). Chop chicken breasts into small pieces. In a small bowl or mason jar, combine chicken stock, soy sauce, ginger, garlic powder, and black pepper.
2. Arrange the chicken pieces flat in a large baking dish and season with cracked black pepper. Give a quick stir to combine chicken with seasoning. Top with diced onion, then over chicken pieces with the sliced peppers. Sprinkle a little garlic powder on top.
3. Pour the sauce mixture over the chicken and peppers and give all a good stir, to combine the sauce evenly. Arrange diced butter on top of the chicken and peppers.
4. Bake the bell pepper chicken casserole on the middle rack for 25 – 30 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink (internal temperature of 165˚F – 74ºC). Garnish the pepper chicken bake with lemon slices, and fresh cilantro, and serve hot with your favorite side dish – like cauliflower rice, rice, bulgur, or pasta. Enjoy!

How did it turn out?
Instead of over rice or pasta, I added Yukon gold potatoes. I also added a few tomatoes because I’m using up garden produce. Loved the recipe and will make again. It was easy to throw together with available ingredients!
Awesome and easy. Will be a new normal for us
Delicious. I used skinless boneless thighs and it work well. Will make again.
