One of Joy Bauer‘s healthy gluten free chicken recipes. Because it contains tomatoes, I am not able to provide you with a photo, at this time, as I have a tomato allergy, but it sounded so delicious and healthy, I just had to share this one with you all! I will have to make this using peppers and a sauce as a substitute for the tomatoes. Until then, I hope you find this gluten free recipe delicious and report back your findings with us all.
