I made a new chicken recipe on saturday and we all loved it. I go through periods where I will make a bunch of new recipes and then I take a break to make everyone's favorites again. I found this recipe over at My Kitchen Cafe and it was a real winner with us. It's slightly spicey due to the dried pepper flakes in it..but my 10 year old ate it without mentioning anything and thats saying alot. He can really detect onions,and peppers in a meal and anything with a kick in it and he is downing the water and telling me he's full. I'll be posting a few more new recipes this week so stay tuned. Thanks to My Kitchen Cafe for a winner of a recipe!

LOVE that recipe. It looks divine!
Yummm! This looks like a recipe that my family will love. Thanks for sharing. I definitely will try this one weekend. :)
last night was SO MUCH FUN on the streets of downtown wuppertal. thank god we were there and not out here in the country.
this is one of the very best things about living here - soccer craziness and those auto parades afterwards. i was standing out there with my flag, waving at all the cars. i know nothing about soccer but i love the enthusiasm and can get caught up in it. my man, OTOH, never joined me on the sidewalk.
hmmm...i think i'm gonna trip this for dinner!
i'll let you know how it goes!
Sonya - glad you liked this dish - and we are addicted to the World Cup way over at our house in Wisconsin, too!
That chicken looks good! Think I'll try that one soon, maybe tonight. Watching soccer at school? Wow! Lucky kids!
I may have to try this with my bastard sugar :) This is the first recipe I saw without alcohol. I don't like cooking with wine or liquors.
I will add this to my plan for next week. This week I am stuck in bed and then we are traveling.
We love Bourbon chicken. I always wondered how it was made.
