Chicken Cacciatore

A healthy twist on a traditional comfort food.

Ingredients:

4 thin-sliced boneless, skinless chicken breast cutlets
1 large onion, thinly sliced
2 medium zucchinis, sliced in 1/4-inch slices
1 large can of Trader Joe's diced tomatoes
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
Salt & pepper to taste

Directions:

Heat olive oil in a large pan over medium heat
Add zucchini slices, cook for 3-4 mins
Add onion slices, cooking until onions and zucchini start to soften
Add entire can of diced tomatoes, and mix thoroughly
After about 5-7 mins, "bury" chicken cutlets beneath tomato mixture
Cover pan, and allow chicken to cook 3-4 mins
Turn over chicken cutlets, cover, and cook another 3-4 mins

Serving size: 1 cutlet topped with generous portion of tomatoes, onions, zucchini

Tip: Vegetarians can use the tomato, onion, and zucchini as a sauce with pasta or spaghetti squash
