Afghanified Fajita (via Zaki's Mom)

- Using food processor mix together 3-4 cloves of garlic and 2 tablespoons lemon juice
Set mix aside

- Dice1/2 red and 1/2 green bell peppers
- Dice 1/4 of an onion
- Dice 1/2 cup of broccoli (or more if you prefer)
- Rise chicken and cut into small bite-sized pieces
- Pour olive oil into large pot and begin to heat
- Add chicken, plus 1/2 teaspoon of salt, plus 1 teaspoon of turmeric
- Add 1-1/2 tablespoons of the garlic/lemon juice mix
- Mix well, add lid to pot and leave for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally
- After 5-7 minutes add the chopped veggies, moisture in pot should be mostly burned away
- Add 1 very large tablespoon of Hot Ajvar sauce, 1 tablespoon Sweet & Spicy Sauce (Chinese sauce optional), stir well
- Cook for another minute or so, make sure to not over-cook the veggies, they should remain partly crisp, not soggy.

Serve with Afghan Palau (rice), Arab Yogurt, and toasted middle eastern bread (pita will suffice).
