  1. Hi, Hannah Jones
    I made this and it was very good. I used a whole bag of ready snap peas. It was double the amount the recipe called for, but I like them a lot. I also used boneless chicken thighs. I made brown rice to put it over. It was very good. I think next time I’ll add some pimientos.rainiertamayo

  2. Paula Deen just held up HER Paula magazine from Hoffman media that had THIS EXACT RECIPE on her you tube channel “Love and Best Dishes”. This was filmed approximately in 2021 or 2022.

    So Hoffman media runs this recipe and photo in Taste Of The South magazine in 2016 and then again runs the EXACT RECIPE AND PHOTO in Paula Deen’s Magazine 7 or 8 years later.

    Shame on Them!
