Tammy's Review:
This is a delicious chicken and pasta recipe! Reading through the list of ingredients, it seems simple, but the taste is fabulous! It's easy to make, and if you're a pasta/sauce/chicken fan, then you'll love this!! :)
I didn't have green onions, so I substituted regular onions, thinly sliced. It worked great. I did toss in some dried green onions with the chicken, too. And, as you can see from the photos, I have made this with bell peppers that weren't red, and it was still tasty... though I do think red are the best. Oh, and one last thing -- I couldn't really taste the apple juice much, so I'm guessing if I didn't have apple juice, I would just use water. :)
My rating: 10/10
