Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp olive oil plus more if needed
  • 1 lb chicken breasts cut into 1 ½ to 2-inch strips
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 tsp oregano
  • 1 tsp fresh thyme or ½ tsp dried thyme
  • 1 small onion diced
  • 3 cloves garlic minced

  • 1 14 oz can Cannellini beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 28 oz cans diced tomatoes
  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Chopped parsley for garnish

Instructions

  • Season the chicken pieces with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large sauté pan or cast iron skillet over medium-high heat; add chicken and brown for 3 minutes on each side, adding more oil and cooking in batches, if needed.
  • Remove chicken and set aside on a plate. Add the remaining tablespoon olive oil to the pan. Add the sliced mushrooms in a single layer and brown, working in batches, a few minutes per side. Remove from the pan and set aside.
  • Add the onion and sauté for 3 minutes. Add the garlic, and sundried tomatoes; sauté for 2 minutes. Stir in the diced tomatoes, spices, beans, and sugar.
  • Add the chicken back to the pan and spoon some of the sauce and vegetables over top of the chicken. Cover and simmer until the chicken is cooked, about ten minutes. Return the mushrooms to the pan. Correct seasoning by adding salt and pepper. Sprinkle with chopped parsley and serve.
  • Enjoy!
