About Peppered chicken

Peppered Chicken is a savory dish featuring chicken seasoned with bold black pepper and an array of spices, often complemented by garlic, onion, and a touch of chili for heat. Popular in many cuisines, including African, Asian, and Caribbean, its preparation showcases regional twists, from fragrant marinades to quick stir-fry techniques. Typically, chicken breast or thigh is used, offering a lean source of protein. Black pepper contributes antioxidants and aids digestion, while the spices enhance flavor without excessive dependence on salt or fat. Opting for grilling or baking methods makes it a healthy choice, minimizing added oils. However, variations heavy in creamy sauces or accompanied by fried sides might increase calorie content. Served with fresh vegetables or whole grains, Peppered Chicken offers a balanced and flavorful meal that caters to diverse dietary preferences.
