This recipe arrived in a Kroger coupon flyer. I've omitted the mushrooms since I don't care for them, but if you do, original recipe called for 1 lb. mushrooms, sliced. Just add them in with the onions & peppers when you saute.

How to Make Chicken Cacciatore Stew

Step-by-Step

Heat large skillet over medium-high heat and add oil.
Season chicken pieces with salt & pepper. Once skillet is hot, add chicken pieces a few at a time, brown well on all sides & remove. Continue until all chicken is browned & set aside.
Using the same skillet, saute onions & peppers for 3 to 5 minutes, scraping up brown bits.
Add chicken back to skillet & stir in the Cacciatore Simmer Sauce. Bring to a simmer & stir in dry pasta.
Cover & cook over low heat until chicken is cooked to a safe internal temperature of 165 degrees & pasta is tender.
Transfer to serving bowl or individual plates & garnish with parmesan cheese.
Refrigerate any leftovers.
