Keep It Simple with Tomato Garlic Chicken

As a kid, my mother made an iteration of this dish at least once a week for my brother and me. It was the easiest of easy dishes she made. She didnt need to look at a recipe; she usually had all of the ingredients, minus the chicken, on hand at any given moment; and on those nights when she wasnt all that inspired to try something new, this was her go-to.

A few weeks ago, fall finally arrived in Los Angeles and I was craving something light and filling. I wanted it to be fuss-free yet warm and comforting. I remembered this dish, the one she always made for us. I looked in my kitchen and was pretty excited to see that the only thing I really needed was the chicken. I ran to my neighborhood store and picked that up and I had dinner about 30 minutes after that.

If you, too, are looking for an easy dish that can be thrown together in under an hour and can feed a good amount of people, this is for you!
