Craving a healthy meal but short on time? Try this Black Pepper Chicken recipe. It's packed with tender, juicy chicken and crispy, colorful, sweet bell peppers, all in a tasty black pepper sauce. And it takes just 20 minutes to whip up in the kitchen. And unlike traditional Black Pepper Chicken, this dish is gluten-free. That's because we used gluten-free tamari sauce. And it contains less sugar because we used a sugar substitute instead. Who knew that "fast" food could be good for you too!
