Chicken Marinara


This recipe is better known as "How to vastly improve your jarred pasta sauce with dried herbs and booze".  Any cheap white wine will do; I typically look for a chardonnay in the $5 range with a screw cap for easy storage (e.g. FishEye).  For the chicken, I use two boneless skinless chicken breasts.

serves 6

Saute to brown:
1 lb. chicken, cut in bite-sized strips
4 cloves garlic, minced

Add and cook 3 minutes:
6 oz. mushrooms (I prefer baby portobello)
1/2 tsp. oregano
1/2 tsp. basil
1/4 tsp. thyme

Add and heat through:
24 oz. jarred spaghetti sauce of your choice
1/2 c. white wine

Serve over linguini.


Bad cardiovascular genes run in the family, so I always buy Prego's Heart Smart pasta sauces.
