Number Of Ingredients 14

12 chicken thighs or 12 chicken breasts
6 green peppers, cored, seeded and cut in quarters
2 orange baby bell peppers, split
2 red baby bell peppers, split
2 yellow baby bell peppers, split
6 -8 stalks fresh celery, cut in small diced pieces, include the leaves
1 tablespoon thyme
2/3 cup Heinz 57 steak sauce
1/3 cup Worcestershire sauce
1/4 cup lemon juice
1/4 cup margarine
1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
1 teaspoon paprika
Pam cooking spray

Steps:

  • Spray a 9 X 13 pan with Pam.
  • Lay green pepper quarters with cup side up.
  • Put diced celery in each pepper quarter.
  • Sprinkle each quarter with thyme.
  • In mixing bowl add Heinz 57 sauce, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, brown sugar and margarine. Mix well.You can heat and mix. I do to make sure the flavors mix.
  • Place split baby peppers in between the green peppers.
  • Place chicken pieces over each pepper quarter.
  • Spoon sauce mixture over chicken pieces.
  • Sprinkle paprika over chicken.
  • Note: You may add 1/8 tsp cayenne pepper to the sauce mixture if you like it hot! This is optional!
  • Cover or foil the top. Refrigerate or Bake at 400* for 40 minutes. Allow extra time if refrigerated about 10 more minutes.
  • I have added the brown sugar because it gives a extra tangy sweetness to the dish and everyone raves about it. The baby peppers are sweet and add color and a little more flavor. You may use Splenda brown sugar blend if desired.
  • Lift out with spatula to individual plates.
