Braised Chicken Cacciatore with Bell Peppers
Chicken breast braised in a savory tomato sauce with vibrant bell peppers and earthy mushrooms, served over a bed of al dente whole wheat pasta.
INGREDIENTS
4.5 oz chicken breast
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
0.5 cup red bell pepper
0.5 cup green bell pepper
0.25 cup yellow onion
0.5 cup cremini mushrooms
2 cloves garlic
0.5 cup crushed tomatoes
0.5 tsp dried oregano
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.5 cup whole wheat pasta
PREPARATION
Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Season the chicken breast with sea salt and black pepper, then sear in the skillet until golden brown on both sides.
Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside, then add the sliced peppers, onions, and mushrooms to the same pan.
Sauté the vegetables until they are softened and the onions are translucent and aromatic.
Stir in the minced garlic and dried oregano, cooking for one minute until the fragrance is released.
Pour in the crushed tomatoes and return the chicken to the skillet, nestling it into the sauce.
Cover the skillet and simmer for 15 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce has thickened.
Serve the braised chicken and savory sauce over the cooked whole wheat pasta.
