This was great!!!!!!!! I also added some zuccini sliced. I didn't have any leftovers but was curious how the Jello would set up. Oh, well I guess it would dissolve when it was heated up.

Fantastic! Easy to prepare - made a few changes - while browning chicken, I added green onions and the minced garlic. Just before serving, I also added sliced water chestnuts and pineapple tidbits! I eliminated the red pepper. I've passed this on to several friends and they love it, too!

I love this! The lemon taste is great. I love the red peppers and pea pods. Great flavor combo in this one. I served it with brown rice to make it even healthier.
