Ingredients
1# chicken breasts cut into bite size pieces1/4 cup white flour (I like spelt flour)1 tsp. kosher salt1 tsp. fresh ground pepper3 tbsp. olive oil (use up to 1/2 cup if you're not counting fat and calories) I call it EVOO Nutrition info based on 3 tbsp.1 onion rough chopped (fairly large chunks)5-6 cloves garlic, peeled and smashed6 oz. can tomato paste1 cup white wine (omit salt if using cooking wine)1 1/2 cups chicken broth1/4 tsp. thyme1/4 tsp marjoram1/2 tsp salt1 bay leaf (if desired)1 cup sliced mushrooms (or more if you like them)1 sweet red or green pepper chopped
Heat EVOO in skillet over medium heat. When oil is hot add onions and stir frequently until onions are tender. Add garlic and stir til garlic is fragrant. Remove with a slotted spoon and shake off excess oil and transfer to blender. Increase heat to medium high.
In Ziploc bag combine flour salt & pepper. Add chicken pieces, seal bag and shake to coat with flour. Dump the entire bag into the skillet and stir quickly to prevent pieces from sticking together. Saute until chicken is golden. Remove chicken with slotted spoon and drain on paper towel. Turn off heat under the oil.
