Notes
To create a delicious chicken dish with an Italian flair, start by blending together a spaghetti sauce mix and seasoned salt with breadcrumbs. This will provide a delightful blend of flavors that will complement the chicken perfectly. Take your chicken pieces and roll them in this mixture, ensuring that every side is evenly coated.
In a large heavy skillet, heat up some oil until it's hot. Then add the chicken pieces and cook until they're golden brown on all sides. This will help to seal in the flavor and give the chicken a crispy exterior.
Once the chicken is browned, add in some wine, water, tomatoes, mushrooms, salt, and any leftover crumb mixture. These ingredients will provide a rich and flavorful sauce that will cook into the chicken and infuse it with even more flavor. Cover the skillet tightly and simmer everything for 35-40 minutes, or until the chicken is tender and cooked through.
When everything is ready, serve your chicken dish with hot buttered noodles on the side. The noodles will provide a nice complement to the rich flavors of the chicken and sauce, making for a meal that's both satisfying and delicious.
