Chicken Cacciatore

This is a dish that I always try to keep on hand in the freezer. It had just the right amount of sweetness and is hearty enough to warm up when you don't have time to make a meal. This is another recipe handed down to me from my mom. Hope you like it as much as we do!

Ingredients:
1 medium onion, thinly sliced
2 1/2 - 3 lbs chicken tenders, cut in half the short way
2 cloves minced garlic
1 medium red pepper sliced
1/2 box cremini mushrooms sliced
1 large can whole plum tomatoes
1 8oz can unsalted tomato sauce
1 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
1 1/2 tsp dried oregano
1/2 tsp dried basil

Add all ingredients except chicken to skillet. Cover and simmer 40 minutes. Add uncooked chicken pieces and simmer 20 more minutes. Serve over pasta, with salad and bread, or as a sandwich!
