This flavorful skillet dinner has become a favorite at LaVonne Cunningham's home in Colfax, Illinois. It's a great way to use chicken and makes a comforting meal for two, she writes. Ingredients:
2 bone-in chicken thighs (about 3/4 pounds), skin removed |
1 teaspoon olive oil |
2 garlic cloves, minced |
1 can (14-1/2 ounces) stewed tomatoes, cut up |
1 bay leaf |
3/4 teaspoon sugar |
3/4 teaspoon dried basil |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
dash pepper |
hot cooked spaghetti |
2 tablespoons sliced pimiento-stuffed olives, optional |
Directions:
1. In a skillet, brown chicken in oil over medium-high heat for about 3 minutes on each side. Add garlic; cook and stir about 45 seconds. Stir in the tomatoes, bay leaf, sugar, basil, salt and pepper.
2. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 20-25 minutes or until chicken juices run clear and chicken is tender.
3. Simmer, uncovered, until sauce reaches desired thickness. Discard bay leaf. Serve over spaghetti. Garnish with olives if desired. Yield: 2 servings.
