Treat your ingredients with care...

  • Chicken breasts — Pound them slightly to ensure even cooking.
  • Diced tomatoes — Opt for fire-roasted diced tomatoes for an extra smoky flavor.

Tips & Tricks

  • For a spicier kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the tomato sauce.
  • Serve the chicken over a bed of sautéed spinach or roasted vegetables for a healthier twist.
  • If you prefer a creamier sauce, stir in a tablespoon of cream or coconut milk at the end.
