Ingredients
- 500 grams chicken breast
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic cloves
- 1 medium onion
- 3 medium tomatoes
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- 120 milliliters chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
Directions
Step 1
Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and season with salt and black pepper.
Step 2
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Step 3
Add the chicken to the skillet and sauté until browned on all sides and cooked through, about 6-7 minutes. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
Step 4
Mince the garlic and finely chop the onion.
Step 5
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Sauté the garlic and onion until softened and fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.
Step 6
Dice the tomatoes and add them to the skillet. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes begin to break down and form a chunky sauce.
Step 7
Stir in the dried oregano and dried basil, allowing the flavors to combine.
Step 8
Pour in the chicken broth and bring the mixture to a simmer. Let it simmer for 5 minutes to thicken slightly.
Step 9
Return the cooked chicken to the skillet, stirring to coat it with the tomato sauce. Simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes to ensure the chicken is heated through.
Step 10
Finely chop the fresh parsley and sprinkle it over the dish as a garnish before serving.
Step 11
Serve the Tomato Chicken Saute warm with your choice of rice, pasta, or crusty bread.
