Best Spicy Italian Chicken Recipes
ITALIAN CHICKEN AND SPICY TOMATO SAUCE
A wonderful quick and easy meal. I came up with this because I always have a ton of canned tomatoes on hand and a bunch of chicken. I wanted something different and low calorie. Once I snuck a bunch of broccoli VERY chopped up in here. I had to cook it forever so the husband couldn't tell it was in the dish, but it work like a charm! He still loved it!! Enjoy! (Pasta is included in the nutritional information, so cut back on that if you are watching your weight.)

SPICY ITALIAN CHICKEN
This is a wonderful, flavorful way to make chicken and have a great sauce for some pasta on the side. Tomatoes, onions, and lots of garlic create the base of the sauce, then it's sparked with flavor from olives, red pepper flakes, anchovies and capers. After eating this chicken you will immediately begin talking with your hands and singing opera.
