Not-So-Fancy Cacciatore
My easy chicken cacciatore recipe is below! It’s budget friendly and beyond tasty! My husband has requested more chicken & rice meals and this is going to become a weekly staple.
While my rinsed white basmati rice simmered in a small pot, I completed this dish in about 20 minutes.
Ingredients:
- Oil or butter
- 1-2 lbs trimmed chicken breast
- Spices (salt, pepper, paprika, red pepper flakes, dried Italian herbs)
- 2 bell peppers
- 1 onion
- Minced garlic
- 16 oz can crushed tomatoes
Instructions:
- Cook seasoned chicken breast thoroughly in large saucepan
- Remove to rest
- On medium heat, add sliced bell peppers, chopped onion, and garlic to pan
- Cook until tender
- Stir in tomatoes, simmer for 5 minutes
- Add chicken breast back to skillet, flip to coat in sauce
Optional:
- Stir in mushrooms to sauce
- Stir in spinach to sauce
- Top with herbs
- Top with green onion
Looks yum 😋
