Chicken in a Red Sweet Pepper Sauce image

The was originally from Madhur Jaffrey's Indian cookery. Over the years I have added and taken away bits, but the colour is still great and the flavours unchanged. Don't be put off by the long list of ingredients, it is very quick to make.

Overall, I thought this recipe was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

This recipe is a bit too bland for my taste. I'll have to add some more spices next time.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my sauce turned out a little too spicy. Next time I'll use less cayenne pepper.

I substituted chicken thighs for breasts and it turned out just as good. I also added a little bit of cayenne pepper for some extra heat.
