Chicken In Tomato Sauce

Chicken in Tomato Sauce

Chicken in tomato sauce is a comfort dish that is packed with flavor.  I like to make this dish because it is easy to prep and cook.  This dish is perfect for Sunday dinner or a busy day where you want a healthy meal but don’t have a lot of time to cook one.

This chicken dish has rich flavors that deepen with leftovers.  It is perfect to serve over jasmine rice or mashed potatoes.  For those that are on low carb diets, it is perfect to eat as a chicken stew.  I also like how the chicken is cooked to perfect tenderness.  This is because of the use of chicken thighs.  I like to buy organic thighs to make sure I am getting the most health benefit of this dish.

  • Remove the casserole dish from the refrigerator and add in the sherry, diced tomatoes, tomato sauce and tomato puree and mix well.
  • Pre-heat the oven to 360 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Bake the chicken in tomato sauce covered with foil for 1/12 hours.  The chicken should be super tender and fall off a fork when you pierce it.  If chicken is not cooked to tender, cover and bake for another 30 minutes.
  • This tasty dish can be stored for up to 4 days in the refrigerator.
