Very good and easy to make. The first time I made it I followed the recipe exactly, but the ketchup was too much for me. Now when I make it I use BBQ sauce and omit the ketchup and brown sugar, or use 1/2 BBQ sauce and 1/2 ketchup.

This was super easy and really pretty good. I just couldn't get past the fact that I felt like a college student again who was just learning how to cook. I think it was the ketchup. It was a good way to use up some green and red peppers though. I never know what to do with those.

Yup. I knew he'd like it from the indgridients. Anything with ketchup and the brown surgar makes a good meal. This was great!

Loved this and so much flavor. The sauce was great with just enough sweetness coming through. I eyeballed the veggies and only simmered for about 15 minutes. I served with pasta.

This was great...easy to throw together and had a great flavor...kind of like a sweet and sour chicken. I did add 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper just to give it a little extra kick. It was very good...DH even ate leftovers and that never happens!
