Would You Love A New Chicken Recipe?

I love trying out new chicken recipes or just fooling around in the kitchen making up a brand new delicious and sometimes healthy meal! I been thinking of something to spice up all this chicken i purchased..my local grocery store had them for .69 cents a pound and I got every single package they had haha.

Well Heres my recipe and if you want to try it,you wont regret it! My family loves it and asked for me to make it again.

Note: I have a family of 4 and you can double it or shorten it!


What you need:



  • 3 pounds of chicken ( .69 per a pound)
  • 1 packet of weber white wine and herb marinade mix-to make it you need a lil oil and water ( with coupon i got this for .12 cents lol but the original price is .62 at your nearest walmart!)
  • Fresh or dried basil ( You Decide,I use fresh from my garden)
  • A Pepper ( Green,Red,Yellow,or Orange)
    Directions:

  1. Take the chicken if on the bone,like mine was and remove the skin and take a nice sharp knife and remove the chicken from the bone. When you remove all the chicken,cut it up in chunks ( size does not matter,I prefer lil bigger than bite size).

  2. Mix the marinade together and throw the basil along with it.

  3. Place the cut up chicken in the marinade bowl,place some plastic wrap over the top and place in fridge for 20 mins.

  1. Get your skillet pan ready with a lil oil ( I just put enough in to cover the skillet bottom and then let it heat up)
  2. Throw in any kind of peppers that you like. ( I use roasted red peppers,that are roasted on the grill..those are done the day before but you dont have too) and then place the marinated chicken in with them aswell.






  3. Now when they are cooked and look like you want to dive into them lol they are done.


I paired this chicken with some corn, mashed potatos and with the bits that were in the skillet i made a nice white wine herb basil white gravy.

  1. Take some butter and place it in the skillet ( After You Remove The Chicken).
  2. Add A little flour and mix into the butter ( it will start getting thick like a paste form).
  3. then add some milk(soy milk works great also) and let it simmer til its the right type of gravy that you prefer. ( Taste it and if needed add some salt and pepper)






  • My Mom gave me a thumbs up and asked for another plate,right when she was finished :) she said it was the best chicken shes had in ages. She would not let me photo her smiling face lol but i thought i would mention it.
