Easy Chicken Cacciatore

This is the meal that I will be preparing for my family tonight. Found this recipe online after doing some major searching.

1 whole fryer chicken (2.5-3 lbs) cut up
2 tbsp olive oil
2 (14.5 oz) cans Italian Style stewed tomatoes
1 (6 oz) can tomato paste
2 cups sliced mushrooms
1 cup sliced zucchini
1 tsp crushed basil
cooked pasta (I will be using penne rigate, however any pasta will do)

Brown chicken in oil for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, then drain. Add cans of stewed tomatoes, tomato paste, mushrooms, zucchini and basil. Salt and pepper to taste. Cover and let simmer for 25-30 minutes. Serve over pasta. If desired you can top with Wisconsin mozzarella cheese.

Total Price - Less than $10
Servings - about 6
