Mae for Dining on a $ Contest 2008. What a nice suprise this is. I love te addedpepperoni flavor to the chicken. Dh wasn't so sure when he aw it but tried it anyway and did like it. I followed directions exactly although I rarely fry anything. I can see this being done in a fry pan with Pam or Emerils spray in the furture or baked chicken in the oven. Then turn out into pan for remainder of recipe. This was so easy to make and again enjoyed very much. I also may tr again and add some tomatoe sauce to cover as it can add sme flavor to the pepperoni/cjicken flavors. Thank you chef for a make again meal.
