You know the rules that I go by. I only post recipes that have gone thru extensive testing at my own dinner table. I made this last night and the recipe fell into "yes, please make them again " category. The marinade is "teriyak-ish" but not really (I love that I am so clear on that). Super flavorful and super delicious. In my old days of cooking I believed that the longer you marinade the chicken the better. That's not what I do now days. Over marinated chicken is just not good eats, if you know what I mean, so marinating for an hour or two is just enough. The original recipe called for green bell pepper but I used red bell pepper just because I like it and also because it looks pretty. Enjoy this finger licking goodness!
