chicken and red sauce
My husband needed room in the freezer for a large amount of coffee beans...so he brought up a bunch of stuff. What could I do but invent a recipe? This was the result, and it turned out pretty good! I wanted to write it down so I could duplicate it...glad I remembered the pictures! I hope you get a chance to try it.

How To Make chicken and red sauce
-
1Make, defrost or just use a jar of sauce. Mine was made from last summer's garden tomatoes and basil. -
2Put a bit of the sauce in the bottom of a 13x9 baking dish.
-
3Split the chicken breasts if they are large and lay on top of the sauce.
-
4Give them some seasoning. I used basil, garlic powder, olive oil, salt and pepper.
-
5Add the shredded Mozzarella.
-
6I put some bacon on top of that just because.
-
7Add some more sauce over the whole thing.
-
8Shred some Parmesan on top of the sauce.
-
9It looked kind of naked so I added some sliced olives and some green onion tops.
-
10I saved the remaining sauce to spoon on each serving.
-
11Bake at 350 until chicken reads done on a thermometer. Mine got baked too long!
-
12Serve with plain rice or my Mexican Rice.
