Trim any visible fat from the chicken breast and cut it into bite-sized pieces (if desired).
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute.
Add the diced onion, red bell pepper, and chicken pieces to the skillet. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is lightly browned and the vegetables start to soften.
Stir in the diced tomatoes, chicken broth, and tomato paste. Mix well to combine.
Season the mixture with dried oregano, dried basil, black pepper, and salt.
Cover the pan with a lid and reduce the heat to low. Let the mixture simmer for about 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is fully cooked and the flavors are well blended.
Add the apple cider vinegar and stir to incorporate, cooking for another 1-2 minutes.
Remove the skillet from the heat. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Serve the Chicken Cacciatore hot, garnished with fresh parsley if desired. Enjoy this satisfying HCG Phase 2 meal!
