I modified this dish to make it spicy by adding a can of Rotel tomatoes and increasing the cumin and chili powder. Once I did that, however, it became a quick family favorite. Great with crackers, although I think cornbread or tortilla chips would be tasty as well.

Very healthy, just not very attractive. Great with cornbread. Thanks for sharing.

Very good! I used red, yellow and orange peppers and cut them in thick chunks, and I used diced tomatoes. I served it over some left over couscous and topped it with some cheddar cheese. I enjoyed it very much. Thank you!

I thought this was pretty bland, next time i might add around a tablespoon of chili powder and probably some fresh cilantro, I did freeze it and it was nice to have something easy to heat up!

So simple and very good! I, too, wanted to bump things up a little so I added a chopped, seeded jalapeno and for the chili powder I used Penzeys ground chipotle since I love that smoky flavour. I have a cumin addiction, LOL, so I added a wee bit more. Everything else, I made as written. I thought it was a gorgeous dish with all the different colours, so I took a pic before I dug in. The majority of the recipe will be going straight to the freezer in individual serving sizes, ready for me to grab for brown bag lunch anytime. Perfect! Thanks bmcnichol!

I made this using fresh farmers market red, yellow, and green bell peppers. It looked very pretty, but tasted no different than a similar recipe that I have in my crock pot's cook book. In the crock pot I dump 2 cans corn, 2 cans black beans, 2 cans diced tomatos, 2 cans chicken breast, 1 bag frozen diced green peppers, some frozen diced onions, cumin, and chili powder. In todays preparation I sliced my fresh peppers "julienne", but would have prefer diced for consistency. I also like diced tomato better than crushed. I like the chunks of tomato when using diced tomato rather than crushed. This recipe was still tasty, but just easier in the crock pot. This needed to go in a stock pot. It grew to large for my skillet.

This was good, I added an extra can of diced tomatoes because it seemed too dry. I would definetly increase the spices next time. Thank you.

I loved this. LOTS. But it's not really a stew....let's rename it. Delicious chicken and veggie bowl.
