Barb's notes: I used chicken breast in place of the whole chicken, also I adde
d
more mushrooms and onions and left out the green pepper (I don't like bell
peppers). It was delicious.

Next note: To very this I added a little cayenne pepper to the chicken with th
e
salt and it added a very nice spicy touch to it. Like this very much. . May
add a little salsa to the veggies next time to see how the sweet and spicy
flavor turns out.
