What a nice way to serve this yummy Italian dish!
Ingredients
1 large can of whole tomatoes
1-12 oz. can of tomato paste
1 Tablespoon minced garlic
a dash of sugar (to counteract the acidity of the tomatoes)
Italian seasoning
salt and pepper to taste
4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts
Spray crock pot with non-stick cooking spray.
Pour the tomatoes, juice and all, into the crock pot. Using a potato masher, work the tomatoes so that they are crushed somewhat. They will reduce during cooking. Add in the paste, garlic, sugar, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. High on high for about an hour, working at the tomatoes with the potato masher occasionally.
After one hour add the chicken breasts to the sauce. Mix to coat the chicken. Allow to cook for about 4 hours on high.
Serve over your choice of cooked pasta, spaghetti squash, or rice.
