The chicken was really tough. It was simple but......I should have pounded the breasts first. I heated the sauce in a separate pot to avoid boiling as that would be shoe leather! Good taste.

Very simple, very quick, very tasty!! I've made this a few times and this recipe is now on my list of favorites.Chicken comes out moist & delicious. The spaghetti sauce acts as a tenderizer. Add a salad and some garlic bread and you have an easy, quick meal. Doubling the recipe again tonight to serve company!
