Time 1h30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 tablespoon olive oil
4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - pounded thin
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon black pepper
3 potatoes, peeled and quartered
2 green bell peppers, cut into strips
2 teaspoons dried oregano
1 teaspoon onion powder
¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes
3 tablespoons tomato paste
1 (14.5 ounce) can chicken broth

Steps:

  • Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Prepare a 9x13 inch baking dish with cooking spray.
  • Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Season the chicken breasts on both sides with the salt and pepper. Cook the chicken in the hot oil until completely browned, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer the chicken to the prepared baking dish; cover tightly with aluminum foil.
  • Place the potatoes and bell peppers in the skillet. Season with oregano, onion powder, and red pepper flakes. Cook and stir until the vegetables soften, 10 to 15 minutes.

CHICKEN PIZZAIOLA

Delicious chicken pizza topped pasta!

Provided by RecipeBoy.com (shared from The Six-Ingredient Solution cookbook)

Categories     Main Course

Number Of Ingredients 6

2½ cups marinara sauce ((One 24-ounce jar should be enough))
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Four 6 to 8-ounce boneless, skinless chicken breasts ((pounded to an even thickness))
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
15 slices pepperoni
8 ounces dry spaghetti

Steps:

  • Place your oven rack in the middle position, and preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Spread the marinara sauce on the bottom of a 9x13-inch dish.
  • Place the Parmesan in a separate shallow dish. Sprinkle the chicken with salt and pepper, then roll in the Parmesan and coat completely (pat it on so it will stick well). Lay the coated chicken in the marinara sauce dish. Maybe sprinkle a little more Parmesan on top! Bake for 15 minutes.
  • While the chicken is baking, prepare the pasta. Cook the spaghetti according to package instructions. Reserve 1/4 cup of the pasta water. Drain the pasta, then return the pasta to the pot along with the pasta water.
  • Remove the pan from the oven. Sprinkle mozzarella on top. Spread out the pepperoni slices over the top of the cheese. Increase the oven temp to 475 and continue to bake until the cheese melts and the chicken registers 160 degrees, 5 to 7 minutes longer.
  • Spoon some of the sauce from the pan with the chicken in it into the pasta. Stir until coated. Plate four dishes with pasta and top with some of the chicken and more sauce.

BAKED CHICKEN PIZZAIOLA RECIPE - (4.4/5)



Baked Chicken Pizzaiola Recipe - (4.4/5) image

Provided by á-17891

Number Of Ingredients 15

Sauce {substitute 1 jar (24 ounce) premade sauce to save time}:
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 medium-ish yellow onion, diced
1/2 bell pepper, diced
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 + 1/2 teaspoons Italian seasoning, crushed between fingertips
coarse salt and fresh black pepper
1 can (28 ounces) crushed tomatoes
Chicken:
1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese, plus more for serving
1/3 cup seasoned bread crumbs
6 chicken cutlets
1 + 1/3 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
3 - 4 ounces sliced pepperoni
12 ounces spaghetti

Steps:

  • Instructions Make the sauce: In a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan heat the oil over medium-low heat. Add the onion, pepper, garlic and Italian seasoning. Season well with salt and pepper. Cook until tender about 10 minutes, stirring often. Mix in the crushed tomatoes, about 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Add about 1/4 cup water to the empty tomato can and slosh it around to mix with any remaining sauce and add it to the pan. Bring to a simmer and cook 25 - 30 minutes, stirring often. Taste halfway through and again at the end and season as needed. Meanwhile make the chicken: Heat oven to 400 degrees F. Lightly grease a large roasting pan or baking sheet with sides large enough to comfortably fit all the chicken. In a wide, shallow dish mix the Parmesan and bread crumbs together. Season the chicken on both sides with salt and pepper. Coat the chicken one at a time with the crumbs patting them on with your hands - the chicken will be thinly covered - some of the chicken will show through - that's ok. Place them in the baking sheet at least an inch apart.Bake 15 minutes. Meanwhile cook the spaghetti in plenty of boiling water according to package directions to al dente. Reserve 1/2 cup of the cooking water before draining. Remove the chicken from the oven and top with the pepperoni - dividing it up evenly between the chicken, then do the same with the mozzarella, piling it on top. Put them back in the oven about 5 minutes until cheese is completely melted. Chicken should measure internal temperature of 165 - 175 degrees F. If you want the cheese to be golden you can place them briefly under the broiler. Mix the sauce into the spaghetti over low heat, mixing in a little of the reserved starchy water from cooking the spaghetti. Serve with the chicken and extra Parmesan for garnish. *To make this without the spaghetti bake it in a large casserole dish. Pour the sauce into the bottom and place the chicken on top. You will need to cook it longer - anywhere from 10 - 20 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use a flavorful sauce: The sauce is the star of this dish, so make sure it's packed with flavor. Use a combination of crushed tomatoes, garlic, basil, oregano, and red pepper flakes.
  • Cook the chicken until it's golden brown: This will help to seal in the juices and prevent the chicken from drying out.
  • Don't skimp on the cheese: Mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses are a classic combination that melts beautifully and adds a delicious flavor to the pizza.
  • Serve immediately: Chicken pizzaiola is best enjoyed hot out of the oven, so serve it as soon as it's done cooking.

Conclusion:

Chicken pizzaiola is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that's perfect for a weeknight dinner. It's also a great way to use up leftover chicken. With its flavorful sauce, tender chicken, and melted cheese, this dish is sure to be a hit with the whole family.
