Ingredients
  

  • olive oil
  • 4 chicken tenders orany cut of chicken that you want
  • 1/2 medium onion cut into strips
  • 2 1/2 cups marinara sauce

Instructions
 

  • Put a skillet on at medium high and swirl in just enough olive oil to cover the bottom. Lightly sprinkle the chicken pieces with dried basil, garlic powder, black pepper and salt (optional on the salt). Cut up the onion into thick strips. Put the chicken and the onion in the skillet. Push the chicken around to make room for the onion to touch the bottom of the skillet.
  • Sear the chicken lightly on both sides and the onion strips will be wilted enough by then to add the marinara sauce . You could use your own homemade sauce or get some off the shelf in a store. We recommend Barilla.
  • Bring the sauce up to a simmer then lower the heat to medium. Turn the chicken over a few times as it cooks. When the chicken is firm to a poke or reads 165F on a meat thermometer, it is ready to serve. Top the chicken with the marinara sauce and the onions.
