Ingredients
2 tsp butter
4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts
1 red bell pepper
1 yellow bell pepper
1 zucchini
1/3 cup apple juice, or chicken broth
2 tbsp Dijon mustard
2 tbsp honey
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
1/4 cup sour cream, optional
Instructions
Melt butter in a large, wide frying pan, preferably non-stick, set over medium heat. When hot, add chicken and cook until golden, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Meanwhile, slice peppers into strips. Slice zucchini in half lengthwise, then into thin pieces.
When chicken is golden, add juice, Dijon, honey and cayenne. Stir until mixed. Scatter peppers and zucchini over chicken. Cover and reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer, stirring vegetables and turning chicken occasionally, until chicken feels springy when pressed, 6 to 8 minutes. Stir in sour cream. Wonderful over rice.
