Chicken Picasso in Rosé Sauce

Chicken Picasso! Now this is something that is got to be a very colorful dish right?! Whatever is attached to the name Picasso should undoubtedly be vibrantly colorful. I am not sure if this dish was made before. It might have. All I know is that I got such brightly colored peppers(hence Picasso!),

sharp cheese and perfect vine-ripened tomatoes that made me think about Italy which lead me thinking about food, it's culture, Michelangelo and Pablo Picasso! See how crazy I am! Any way, so here I am with this colorful, bright, flavorful and easy chicken dish that is an eye candy as well as an Opera in mouth(got to be an Italian term for the music too)!

I made my own roasted tomato sauce. Just chopped tomatoes, garlic and onion, place in the hot oven till every thing is nicely charred. Puree in a blender, salt and pepper and some Italian seasonings and voila! You've got yourself roasted tomato sauce. Add enough heavy cream to make it Rosé ! Pour some in the ice cube tray and freeze for later use(before adding the cream).
