Ingredients

4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (4 ounces each)
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 teaspoons olive oil, divided

1 cup Italian tomato sauce
3/4 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth

Sprinkle both sides of chicken with pepper. In a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, brown chicken on each side in 1 teaspoon oil. Remove and keep warm.
