Chicken Afritada with Bell Pepper

This chicken afritada recipe, in particular, also makes use of red and green bell peppers. This ingredient provides a hint of sweetness to the dish that enhances its overall taste. It also makes this version chicken afritada colorful and visually appealing.

I am using chicken with bones for this recipe. You may use boneless chicken breast or thigh too. Other ingredients such as frozen green peas and hotdog can also be added. I prefer this version to be simple, so I tried to limit the ingredients to a minimum.

You can prepare this chicken afritada version any day that you please. This is meant to be served during regular days either for lunch or dinner (with a single cup of rice). Of course, it will always be excellent to have this with family and friends. I think that any meal can get better when you enjoy it with the people that you love. Do you agree?
