I didn’t add milk or red bell peppers (didn’t have any on hand). I did add minced garlic and was a light touch on salt because I used a little powdered chicken broth (about 1/8 teaspoon) for flavor. I cracked two eggs on top towards the end of cooking). Overall, very good and came together easily (in part because I had prepped potatoes for dinner last night and so I prepared 3 more and cubed them and set them in the fridge submerged in water (in a covered bowl). I also used thighs not breast meat.
This was an old family favourite of my children's. We sliced, instead of cubing the potatoes and cooked them in a small bit of water until they softened.. Milk?? Milk does not create a crust. Best to use more Worcestershire sauce. Peas work very well instead of green peppers.
Just finishing cooking and tasting from the pan for seasonings, added a little salt and took a lot lot of tastes .... I think I will love it when it is done with a crust on the bottom too.
