Chicken Cacciatore
Serves: 6
This is high on my list of satisfying, feel-good meals that take
very little effort. I serve this when everyone has had a long day and we want a bit of cozy
comfort on our plates. Round out the meal with a green salad, warm crusty bread, and your
favorite wine or sparkling beverage.

Preparation
Make the spice blend: Stir the ingredients together in a small bowl and
set aside.
Make the sauce: Lightly coat a Dutch oven with nonstick cooking spray.
Add the oil and warm over medium-high heat. Add the onion, bell pepper, and mushrooms. Cook,
stirring frequently, until the onion is clear and the pepper is soft, about 4 minutes. Add the
garlic spice blend, and cook for 2 minutes, stirring constantly.
Add the tomatoes, broth, wine, and bay leaves. Stir well and bring to a
simmer, stirring frequently. Add the chicken, turn the heat to medium-low, and simmer,
covered, until the mixture thickens and is heated through, about 15 minutes. Stir
occasionally. Remove the bay leaves. Spoon the sauce over the spaghetti, place the chicken
pieces on top, and serve immediately.
