Chicken Cacciatore
(printable recipe)

Ingredients:

3 pounds frying chicken, cut-up (I use boneless chicken breasts)

3 tablespoons oil or shortening

2 cups tomato sauce (two 8 oz. cans)

3/4 cup tomato paste (6 oz. can)

1/2 cup diced onion

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon Italian seasoning or oregano

1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

1/8 teaspoon pepper

Directions:

Brown chicken in oil in a large fry pan. Drain excess oil. Stir in remaining ingredients. Reduce heat. Cover, and simmer 35-40 mins. until tender. If desired, serve chicken pieces with sauce over rice or spaghetti.

[I saute the onion after browning the chicken and you can deglaze the pan with about 1/4 cup of wine before adding the rest of the ingredients.]
