- 1 lb chicken thigh
- 2 bell peppers
- 2 stalks celery
- 2 -3 hot chili peppers
- 1 onion
- 4 garlic cloves

- dice onions, mince garlic and chop celery and peppers.

- sear the thighs and remove.
- sweat vegetables.
- if needed, add remaining tsp of oil.
- when veggies are nicely softened, deglaze pan with chicken broth.
- add spices and bring to a simmer.
- cut chicken into bite-sized pieces and add back to pan, including any juices on the plate.

- if you're the type, ignite with a lighter and watch out!
- if you're that other type, breathe in deeply.
- otherwise, just open a window and let the alcohol escape.
- thoroughly mix corn starch with the water and add to pan.
- bring back to simmer and thicken.

- serve with rice or in a bread-bowl.
- I prefer brown rice.
