Smothered Chicken

This is one of the best things I've ever eaten. I am in love with the sauce that the garlic makes, it is so sweet and not at all like raw garlic. The chicken is always tender. I serve everything over brown rice with a random vegetable on the side. The children love it as well so that's a plus. I always make just a little extra and adjust the seasonings for my family's taste. Also, give yourself a little extra time for the garlic to cool because it is easier to handle when its not so hot.

I just remember one other change I made to this recipe--I replaced the red bell pepper with a can of petite diced tomatoes. We loved it!

We enjoyed this chicken recipe. The chicken was tender and had good flavor. It is good with roasted or steamed broccoli and crusty baguette to soak up the delicious juices from the chicken and sauce. I didn't make this in the microwave, but instead used the oven to make the sauce. We also like to have this with the sauce served over linguini.

The garlic "sauce" is great. We make this for two but keep the same amount of sauce and serve it over rice.
