Louisiana Chicken and Corn image

When I was cooking my Louisiana Pepper Chicken recipe, I went to chop the green peppers and they were bad inside. Then I was missing some other ingredients, so I kept improvising and ended up with this instead. DH absolutely loved it and asked me to write down what I did so I could make it again.
