I got this recipe years ago from my aunt. She uses a different kind of sauce, but I like Ragu Roasted Garlic better! Usually I make a huge batch and freeze the leftover sauce.
Chicken Cacciatore
2-3 lbs. boneless, skinless chicken thighs
1 jar spaghetti sauce (I like Ragu Roasted Garlic)
a couple of good glugs of red wine
1 can Italian diced tomatoes
a palmful of dried Italian seasonings
1-2 teaspoons sugar
coarse salt
a pinch of crushed red pepper flakes
black pepper
1 lb. linguine
Salt and pepper the chicken thighs and brown in evoo over medium heat in a large skillet. Remove from pan. Deglaze pan with red wine and add spaghetti sauce, diced tomatoes, and seasonings. Taste to see if needs more sugar or salt. Return chicken to pan and reduce heat to simmer while pasta cooks. Serve sauce over pasta topped with Parmesan cheese.
