it's one of those days again when i'm craving for a lot of things............... but this time i'm not really craving for this dish but i just suddenly felt like cooking it..............

to your right are the ingredients.......... potatoes, red and green bell pepper (they are so big so i have to slice it in two and i just took 1/4 of the bell pepper) , tomatoe sauce, red onions, garlic........... the chicken is somewhere hiding :-P

to your left is a picture taken while i was saute -ing the onion, garlic with the chiken .......... saute the garlic and onion first, then add the chicken......
