    Forgot to add sugar in my sauce. I don't really like green onion so I would forego that next time. All in all, fun to cook and eat!

    Chicken With Walnuts, Bell Peppers Capsicum and Green Onions, Twenty-plus years ago, a sister introduced me to this recipe — from a 1977 Better Homes and Gardens Oriental Cookbook. The original version which my sister follows faithfully is very similar to Kimke’s Recipe #31632. Here is my version, which I think is different enough to be sent in and enjoyed. It is saucier. Also, our past exchange students want to refer to my version., Forgot to add sugar in my sauce. I don’t really like green onion so I would forego that next time. All in all, fun to cook and eat!, DH and I really enjoyed this. Prep is important when making this recipe. Because used dry sherry, I didn’t add the sugar. I have made this recipe twice. The second time I added some chopped garden tomatoes and some mushrooms. We love this recipe. I wold like to try it with toasted Almonds. Thanks for a keeper and a favorite.
