Ingredients

  • 4 skinless chicken breast halves on the bone, about 2 pounds
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 teaspoons olive oil
  • 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 pound white mushrooms, thinly sliced
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1/2 cup dry white wine
  • 1 (14 1/2-ounce) can whole tomatoes in juice, chopped and juice reserved
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/8 teaspoon red pepper flakes or more to taste

Directions

Rinse the chicken and pat dry with paper towels. Season the chicken with salt and pepper.

Heat the oil in a saute pan over moderately-high heat. Brown the chicken on both sides, about 8 minutes. Remove the chicken.

Reduce the heat to moderate. Add the onion and pepper, cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables begin to soften, about 5 minutes. Add the mushrooms and cook, uncovered and stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms begin to brown. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, for 30 seconds. Add the wine and cook until reduced by half. Add the tomatoes and juice, oregano, red pepper flakes and 1/4 teaspoon of salt and simmer the mixture covered for 10 minutes.

Return the chicken breasts to the pan and simmer, covered, until the chicken is just done, about 20 minutes longer.

    Smells Good, Can't Wait

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    I have the dish simmering now and the smell reminds me of the robust smell of thick tomato sauce boldly presenting itself in... the dining area of an italian kitchen. Read more

    Yum!

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    One of the reviewers suggested serving this over spaghetti squash - great idea! It works really well and makes a fantastic... dish. I used skinless/boneless breasts instead of bone-in and was able to reduce the cooking time in the final step to about 10 minutes. Very tender and yummy.Read more
