This dish is simple and oh so delicious!
hunger's chicken (blog: A For Effort)
2-3 chicken breasts, cubed
2 tablespoons Italian-seasoned bread crumbs
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 tablespoons chopped pimento-stuffed green olives
1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
2 (14.5 ounce) cans Italian-style stewed tomatoes, undrained
1/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
pasta of your choice
Cook pasta and keep warm. Dredge chicken in breadcrumbs. Heat oil in large skillet over medium-high heat and add chicken. Cook 3 minutes on each side or until browned. Stir in olives, seasonings and undrained tomatoes. Cook for 5 minutes or until chicken is cooked through. Serve over pasta and top with cheese.
What I have to say- this is a simple recipe that tastes really good. My kids don't like big chunks of tomatoes so I used crushed tomatoes with basil, garlic and oregano. The first time I made it I made a double batch and froze half so I was able to pull some out of the freezer for lunch and reheat it on the stove. It was even better than I had remembered it.
This is a superb recipe, Camie. It tastes so fresh yet requires such simple ingredients. No leftovers here to freeze!
