  • Ingredients
  • 2 * 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 * 4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
  • 2 * 2 tablespoons dried rosemary
  • 1 * 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 3 * 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 * 1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce
  • 1 * 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 * 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1 1/2 * 1 1/2 teaspoons white sugar
  • 1 * 1 bay leaf
  • 1/4 * 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
  • 1 * 1 (15 ounce) can garbanzo beans, drained and rinsed

Preparation

Step 1

Directions

1. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Season the chicken with the rosemary on both sides; cook the chicken in the hot oil until browned evenly, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.
2. Pour 1 tablespoon olive oil into the skillet. Cook and stir the garlic in the hot oil until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the tomato sauce, Italian seasoning, cayenne pepper, sugar, bay leaf, and red pepper flakes to the skillet; stir. Return the chicken to the skillet; cover and reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer until the chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 10 to 12 minutes.
3. Stir the garbanzo beans into the skillet; continue cooking until the beans are heated, 2 to 3 minutes more.
