Roasted Capsicum Chicken

Yummy Roasted Capsicum Chicken !!!

My twist on the capsicum chicken is that I have pan roasted the capsicum and tomatoes and ground them to thick paste before adding to the chicken. This made a lot of difference in the taste and flavour. This dish turned out good and tasted yummy !!!

Capsicum is a good source of vitamin c. It boost the immune system and prevents cell damage.
