yowza. good chicken.

so, i dont know what i did right but i actually made a really good chicken dish tonight, when i decided to throw the original recipe out the window.

1 small onion, chopped
2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
1 cup chopped walnuts
3 garlic cloves, chopped
2 1/2 tablespoons tomato paste
1/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar
2 cups chicken broth
1/4 cup apple cider
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
about 1 1/2 lbs of boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into chunks.
1 orange pepper, diced

Saute onion in 2 tablespoons hot olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat 8 to 10 minutes or until tender. Add walnuts and garlic; cook, stirring constantly, 2 minutes. Stir in tomato paste, and cook, stirring often, 5 minutes.

Add brown sugar, vinegar, broth, cider, salt and pepper, and orange pepper. Bring to boil. Add chicken chunks. Simmer, stirring often, on medium heat, for about 30 minutes or until thickened.

Serve over pasta. YUM.

(I make no promises as to the accuracy of this recipe, so if it turned out wrong... too bad.)
