Chicken ala Mediterranean

1. 1

   Decide first if you want this sauce to go over or to the side of pasta, rice, or potatoes.

2. 2

   This will determine if you cut up your chicken!

3. 3

   In large saucepan over medium heat, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil.

4. 4

   Add onions and garlic and saute until tender, about 8 minutes.

5. 5

   Add tomatoes and their juices, orange peel, oregano, bay leaves, and paprika.

6. 6

   Cook until sauce thickens, stirring occasionally, about 30 minutes.

7. 7

   Discard bay leaves.

8. 8

   In another skillet, heat remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil on medium heat.

9. 9

   Saute your chicken, whether they are whole breast halves or pieces, until thoroughly cooked through.

10. 10

    Right now is a choice: if using whole breast halves, pour the sauce over the halves on another plate.

    If your chicken is in smaller pieces, just add them back into the sauce, and pour it over rice, noodles or potatoes.
