Tammy's Review: 

This is a delicious chicken and pasta recipe! Reading through the list of ingredients, it seems simple, but the taste is fabulous! It's easy to make, and if you're a pasta/sauce/chicken fan, then you'll love this!! :)

I didn't have green onions, so I substituted regular onions, thinly sliced. It worked great. I did toss in some dried green onions with the chicken, too. And, as you can see from the photos, I have made this with bell peppers that weren't red, and it was still tasty... though I do think red are the best. Oh, and one last thing -- I couldn't really taste the apple juice much, so I'm guessing if I didn't have apple juice, I would just use water. :)

My rating: 10/10

Love this!

This was a really delicious dinner...my husband loved it and my 2 1/2 year old thought the cream cheese sauce was "yummy!" I thought that the red peppers added just the right flavor. The only thing I might vary it with in the future is to add a little minced garlic to the sauce. But it was really good without any garlic, too!

Excellent

This was absolutely wonderful.

It was so simple to make, and yet we felt like we were eating fancy that night. We will definately repeat this.

I'm leaving the review for my sister since we both have the same
opinion on this recipe. :) One of my favourite chicken dishes! Red
peppers and Italian seasoning give this dish the perfect taste. One
other note I should mention is that sometimes Erin completely omits
the apple juice and we don't notice a difference in taste.
