If they're in season, you can add fresh tomatoes. Serve this over pasta, rice, mashed potatoes, whatever you choose. Refrigerates and reheats well.

Skillet Chicken in Garlic Tomato Sauce is delicious and so easy to make. This recipe uses kitchen staples to make a wonderful family dinner!

Provided by Christi

Categories     Main Dishes

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 lbs. fresh boneless skinless chicken breasts (or 4 good sized chicken breasts)
28 ounces peeled crushed tomatoes
2 tablespoons minced garlic
2 teaspoons dried basil
3 tablespoons olive oil
1/3 cup unsalted butter
salt and pepper (to taste)
pinch Cayenne Pepper
2 tablespoons Grated Parmesan Cheese (plus more for garnish.)

Steps:

  • Generously season your chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides. Heat the olive oil in a large, deep skillet or pan over medium to medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts to the pan and cook for about 5 minutes per side, or until juices run clear, turning a nice golden brown. Once cooked, reduce the heat to low and carefully remove chicken from pan and set aside.
  • Make sure that you have reduced the heat to low, then add the minced garlic to the same pan with the oil. Cook the garlic for 1 minute, then slowly add the crushed tomatoes to the pan, then add the dried basil and cayenne pepper. Slowly increase the heat to bring the sauce to a simmer. Keep the sauce at a simmer so that it does not splatter. Simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Whisk in the butter until melted, then whisk in 2 tablespoons of grated parmesan cheese. Carefully return the cooked chicken breasts to the pan and allow them to simmer in the sauce for an additional 3 minutes.
  • Serve over cooked pasta and garnish with additional parmesan cheese. As an alternative, you could serve it with some bread for dipping in the sauce and a nice side salad. If you would like to keep it low carb and gluten-free, try serving it over zucchini noodles or spaghetti squash.

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Chicken

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 organic chicken, cut into 10 pieces (Note: Cut the chicken into 2 legs, 2 thighs, 2 wings, and 4 breast pieces)
Kosher salt and freshly ground white pepper
5 sprigs rosemary
1/4 to 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 medium onion, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, skin left on, crushed
2 cups basic tomato sauce
4 cups dry white wine, such as Verdicchio or Pinot Grigio
1/2 cup chicken stock

Steps:

  • Lightly season the chicken with salt and pepper. Place the chicken and rosemary in a sealed container or resealable bag. Refrigerate for at least 6 hours, or up to overnight.
  • Thirty minutes before cooking, remove the chicken from the refrigerator. Reserve the rosemary.
  • Place a large, deep cast-iron skillet that has a lid, or a Dutch oven, over medium-high heat. Add 1/4 cup of the olive oil and heat until hot. Working in 2 batches, sear the chicken for 4 to 5 minutes per side, or until golden brown. Transfer to a plate. If necessary, add up to another 1/4 cup olive oil between batches.
  • Add the onion and garlic to the pan. Saute for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally and pressing down on the garlic cloves. Pour in the tomato sauce and stir constantly for 2 minutes.
  • Add the wine, scraping the carmelized bits from the bottom of the pan with a wooden spatula or spoon. Reduce the heat to low and return the chicken to the pan. Partially cover the skillet with the lid and braise the chicken for 40 minutes, stirring occasionally. If the pan looks dry at any time, reduce the heat slightly and add some chicken stock or water.
  • Add the rosemary and cook for an additional 20 minutes, or until the chicken is fork-tender. Transfer the chicken and sauce to a platter and serve.

CHICKEN WITH GARLIC - TOMATO SAUCE



Chicken With Garlic - Tomato Sauce image

This is from "Light And Tasty" magazine August/Sept 2005. I made this from the recipe in the magazine and it was very good. I used regular tomatoes and did not seed them. I did not have any Italian tomatoe sauce so I used regular and added basel thyme and organo. It looks like too many carrots, but it is better with a lot of them. Depending on how much liquid is in the final mix you might want to not cover the pan in the final step and reduce it some.

Tips:

  • Use ripe tomatoes: The riper the tomatoes, the sweeter and more flavorful the sauce will be.
  • Roast the tomatoes: Roasting the tomatoes intensifies their flavor and gives the sauce a smoky depth of flavor.
  • Use fresh garlic: Fresh garlic adds a pungent flavor to the sauce. If you don't have fresh garlic, you can use jarred garlic, but be sure to use half the amount.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When searing the chicken, don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the chicken from cooking evenly.
  • Season the chicken well: Be sure to season the chicken with salt and pepper before searing. This will help to develop flavor.
  • Simmer the sauce: After adding the tomatoes, garlic, and herbs to the pan, bring the sauce to a simmer and let it cook for at least 15 minutes. This will help to develop the flavors and thicken the sauce.
  • Serve with your favorite sides: Chicken with garlic tomato sauce can be served with a variety of sides, such as pasta, rice, or vegetables.
