Instructions
1.  Mix hot sauce, honey, water, and cornstarch in a medium bowl or tall glass Stir immediately after adding the cornstarch, and set aside. DO NOT add the cottage cheese yet, or the acid of the hot sauce will curdle it. Add the cheese at the end

2.  Dice up the peppers, and onions and add to a large skillet with oil and a small pinch of salt. Cover, and cook over medium heat until browned and soft. Set aside

3.  Meanwhile, dice the chicken into bite sized pieces, and transfer to a bowl. Mix in the seasonings

4.  Spray the pan again, and cook the chicken on medium. Cook until chicken is almost done, because the chicken will cook more in the sauce

5.  Add in the sauce and vegetables into the pan, and also add the cottage cheese. Combine and cook for about a minute until creamy. Optionally, top with shredded cheese, or serve with rice
