So, I'm posting an Italian recipe just to throw everyone for a loop ;o) I actually had a bottle of Ledo's tomatoe sauce that my darling husband got for me the last time he was in Maryland that I've been dying to cook with. Don't know Ledo's Pizza? I (and Gail from Oprah) can only describe it as the best tasting pizza ever! Ledo's Pizza was featured on Oprah's Quest for the Best: The Best Pizza in America back in Nov 2006.
I did make a few changes to the recipe. I cooked the diced chicken in Montreal Chicken Spice and Olive Oil prior to adding it to the soup. Why? Becasue I thought it
CHICKEN CACCIATORE SOUP
from Food Network's Pat Bias
1 cup uncooked rotini
3 cans vegetable broth
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 8 ounces)
1 (30-ounce) jar of extra chunky spaghetti sauce with mushrooms and diced onions
1 medium onion, chopped
1/2 teaspoon garlic puree
1/3 teaspoon Italian seasoning
3 teaspoons red wine (optional)
1 (14.5-ounce) can stewed tomatoes, cut up in juice
1 medium zucchini sliced
Cook rotini according to package directions, substituting 1 can vegetable broth for part of the water. Cook until done (about 10 minutes). Drain and set aside. Cut chicken breasts into a 1-inch dice. In a large pan, combine spaghetti sauce, 2 cans of vegetable broth, onions, garlic puree, chicken, Italian seasoning, red wine, tomatoes, and zucchini. Cook until vegetables are tender and chicken is cooked through (20 to 30 minutes). Add cooked rotini, and cook until heated through.
