How to Make Banana Chilli Chicken

- Slice 1 large red bell pepper into thin strips.
- Thinly slice 1-2 fresh chili peppers (adjust to your spice preference) and chop 1 ripe banana into 1/2-inch pieces.
- Add the red bell pepper, chili pepper, and banana to the pan with the browned chicken.
- Pour in 1 cup of your favorite salsa and 1/2 cup chicken stock. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce has thickened slightly. (Adjust cooking time depending on desired sauce consistency).
- Serve hot and enjoy!
