Chicken Cacciatore

Chicken Cacciatore
Taken from this recipe.















Ingredients:
  • 6 boneless skinless chicken breasts, butterflied and cut through so you have 12 thinner pieces
  • Tastefully Simple Seasoned Salt
  • freshly-ground pepper
  • whole wheat flour
  • olive oil
  • 1 red bell pepper, cored, seeded and chopped
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 15-oz. cans of dice tomatoes
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 3 tablespoons drained capers
  • 1.5 teaspoons dried oregano
  • 1.5 teaspoons dried basil
Directions:
  • Season chicken with TSSS and pepper, then dredge in flour, shaking off any excess.
  • Sauté the chicken on both sides in a large pan with a couple tablespoons of olive oil.  Do in two batches if necessary.  When chicken is nicely browned on both sides, transfer to a plate and set aside.
  • Add bell pepper, onion and garlic to the pan and sauté over medium heat for a few minutes until tender.
  • Add the two cans of diced tomatoes, the chicken broth, capers, oregano and basil.  Stir to combine.
  • Return the chicken to the pan and nestle them into the sauce.  Simmer on medium-low for 10 - 15 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through.
  • Serve hot over whole wheat pasta.
