Sauteed Chicken

Spicy Sauteed Chicken with green peppers is a super tasty dish that you can easily make in a wok pan. You can play with the spices and it's ready in a very short time.

I came home earlier today and we could have a lunch together with hubby. He prepared one of our favorite chicken dish. We love it because it’s very easy to prepare. And maybe he loves to make this because of the same reason!

I stopped by a supermarket on the way home to do some grocery shopping. Although I hate shopping on clothes or that kind of stuff, I am crazy about grocery shopping. So whenever I enter a supermarket, I want to buy almost everything there. I just forget how much I can carry. I think supermarket trolleys must be designed smaller so that people like me don’t fill it up with items they don’t need. My favorite aisles in a supermarket are grocery and detergent aisles. Sometimes I can’t realize the time I spend there.  This time I just took a glance at the soaps, detergents, shampoos, etc. but didn’t examine them closely. I decided to spend time at grocery aisle when I saw it was all in green. There were a lot of herbs which were newly brought to the market so I absolutely bought several bunches of parsley, mint, basil, arugula, thyme, dill and scallion. You see I just lost my control and could hardly stop putting still some other herbs into the trolley. Besides, I bought some summer fruits like cherries, plums, apricot, peach and pineapple. Finally I bought chicken breast as hubby had told me before and ran out of the market not to buy anything more.

Seeing me tired carrying bags full of fruits and veggies, hubby took the responsibility of cooking the lunch. And while he was dealing with the chicken, I washed some of the herbs under water and waited them about 10 minutes in water and vinegar mixture until the lunch was done. We always wash the herbs in this way. The measurement is like this: 1 liter water is mixed with ¼ cup vinegar. Vinegar cleans herbs from bacterias which cannot be seen with naked eye. Besides, it helps the sand sink to the bottom. After washing them well, I took them in a large bowl, squeeze lemon on them. So our lunch was sauteed chicken with green peppers and herbs. Wonderful, isn’t it?
