Quick Chicken Arrabbiata Skillet

Servings: 6

Ingredients

  • 2 Tbsps olive oil or avocado oil
  • 2 lbs chicken breasts or tenders boneless and skinless cut into 1-inch cubes
  • sea salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 large onion chopped
  • 6 cloves fresh garlic chopped
  • 1/2 cup red wine
  • 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes or more to taste
  • 24 ozs high quality marinara sauce
  • 2 tsps dried oregano

optional toppings:

  • handful of fresh basil
  • freshly grated parmesan cheese

Instructions

  • Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Add your chicken pieces and season lightly with sea salt and pepper.
  • Cook until the chicken starts to nicely brown on all sides, about 4-5 minutes.
  • Add the onion and garlic then cook for another 2-3 minutes until they soften.
  • Add the wine to deglaze the skillet, allowing it to bubble until almost fully reduced, stirring constantly.
  • Add the chili flakes, and saute for a few seconds then add the remaining ingredients to your skillet and stir to combine well.
  • Simmer for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until all the flavors combine, and the chicken is cooked through.
  • Serve over cooked brown rice or quinoa then topped with freshly grated parmesan cheese and fresh basil if desired.
