Italian Chicken

By Addie

My family was rather skeptical the first time I served this, but I
knew it was a hit when they quickly asked for seconds! I especially like serving this to company, since I can visit with my guests while it bakes.

Ingredients

• 1 broiler/fryer chicken (2-1/2 to 3 pounds), cut up
• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 jar (30 ounces) spaghetti sauce
• 1/2 cup sliced fresh mushrooms
• 1/2 cup sliced ripe olives
• 2/3 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
• Cooked spaghetti

Preparation

Step 1

Place chicken in a 13-in. x 9-in. baking pan. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 40 minutes; drain.

Sprinkle chicken with Parmesan cheese. Combine spaghetti sauce, mushrooms and olives. (If sauce is thick, add water.) Pour over chicken; bake for another 20 minutes or until chicken is done. Sprinkle with mozzarella cheese; return to oven just until cheese melts. Serve with spaghetti. Yield: 6 servings.
