If you like spaghetti and you are in the mood for something a little different this Italian Chicken and Peppers Spaghetti Recipe is for you. The combination of peppers, mushrooms and onions along with the chicken is delicious. This is a simple recipe and is fairly quick to prepare. As far as the chicken you can use either boneless skinless chicken breasts or thighs. I chose the thighs because they are a little moister when cooked compared to the breasts. Whenever I make something a little different I wonder what the outcome is going to be with the family-they loved it. Enjoy
