I made this recipe and it was good but called for too much water which made the stuffing soggy with no texture. Next time I will just use a cup of water instead of what the recipe called for.

My husband and I are now empty-nesters. We found this recipe easy, quick, and tasty for the two of us, and "tomorrow night" we won't have to cook! It tasted GREAT!

This was the first thing I made when my husband and I moved into our first apartment! I swear I made it every week for 3 months straight! So yummy!

I cooked chicken as others recommended. It was just to peppery and liquidy. I have other Cacciatore recipes that are easy and much better.

We loved this recipe!!! The first time I made it the chicken wasn't cooked enough so next time I cooked the chicken on top of the stove and then followed the recipe>> It was a big hit with my husband!

The stuffing on top was just to mushie & moist. Maybe if I had of use less water than the recipe calls for to give it a little more texture & form. Not sure the kids & hubby said it was okay but I wasn't satisfied with it.

Try to make it browning the chicken, peppers, and onions in a skillet first, then don't bake it as long.
