Grilled Chicken Breast with Creamy Red Pepper Sauce image

This sauce is very tasty, and pretty healthy especially if you use low-fat/lite sour cream and cream cheese. I don't have a grille, so I use my George Forman. Often with the GFG, chicken comes out a little burnt if you use a sauce/marinade directly on the meat...this sauce is spooned on after the meat is cooked, so it works out perfectly!
