Kraft Kitchens Tips

Keeping It Safe

This was F.A.B. Fab!! Let me tell you what I did. I used bone in thighs and removed the skin. I fried them with a little bit of olive oil. I threw in about 5 cloves of diced garlic, sprinkled on the italian dressing packet, poured a large jar of Francesco Rinaldi chunky sauce, a can of stewed italian tomatos chopped, some sliced mushrooms, I chose to omit the peppers as I don't care for them, and just let it cook to death. I seved it over angel hair and OMG, my family and I LOVED it... delicious!! Is a definite make again and again and again!!!

I love this recipe and make it frequently. I use chicken breasts cut into cubes and use Francisco Rinaldi sauce with mushrooms, peppers and onions. The sauce really makes the difference!

I made this foe the in-laws it was great. I did add a few things, I added zuccine,yellow squash cut into chunks,red and green peppers, and I used differant flavors of sauce. I also browned my chicken first. I didn't use much or the good saesoning. Instead I used fresh herbs. put it in a slow cooker and yumm

My family loved this recipe!It has so much flavor. If you are making this for more than 2 people, I suggest using 2 skillets so everything has room to cook properly.

I made this and it just tasted like chicken in spaghetti sauce and I also didn't like the pasta either.

This dish was ok. The sauce was too runny for us though. We also don't eat much bone-in chicken so it was a stretch for us in that department. My hubby said that I should have just made a tomato sauce and add cut up chicken breasts.
