Chicken breast recipe in red sauce
I鈥檓 looking for a really easy way to just open a jar of good sauce and throw in uncooked chicken and put it in the oven. Can this be done and if so on what temp and for how long?
I know it鈥檚 a copout but I like chicken and need recipes that just tell you to add a few ingredients and put raw chicken in the oven and you get a decent tasting meal.
Any info and input would be greatly appreciated.Chicken breast recipe in red sauce?

HOME MADE PASTA SAUCE with chicken breasts
(do not use that awful jar sauce)
do this once and you'll have sauce with chicken breasts for a lot of meals.
In a hot stock pot put,
:
3 tbsp oil
*oregano,
a few shakes of hot crushed pepper flakes ,
*lots of garlic,
*basil,
2 chopped onions,
3 bay leaves,
6 links hot Italian sausage sliced into rounds, brown the sausage,with all the seasonings, maybe 20 minutes or so!
* = all to your taste, but at least start off with 1/8th of cup ( half of a 1/4 cup measuring spoon)
1 package of sliced mushrooms (10 ozs.)
Add 4 large cans of crushed tomatoes, 4 large cans of tomato sauce, 1 large can of tomato paste,
sliced mushrooms
add 4 to 6 boneless or bone-in skinless chicken breasts and 4 to 6 thick pork cutlets
Simmer the sauce for about 3 to 4 hours
put into containers and freeze.up to one year.
pour over pasta
You can do Chicken Cacciatore but you have to brown the chicken first... same with a healthy Chicken Parm. You can do a number of casseroles (chicken and rice, cheesy chicken, etc) and you should be ok.
Your chicken will look kind of gnarly if it's left to just boil in the sauce, but it definitely can be done. I would put it in the oven covered at 375 for an hour. Chicken cooked in liquid is very forgiving so you can even leave it in for a little longer if you want. Definitely add vegetables (onions, garlic, whatever you have that will go) or your chicken will taste terrible.
Be sure to add a little water to the sauce!
You can cook slice up the chicken and saute it with some vegetable or olive oil and then add it to the sauce.
OR you can put the sauce in a baking dish and top it with the chicken. Bake it at 350* for about 35 minutes.
I would COOK the chicken separately first and then add it to the sauce.
