30 Minute Chicken Marinara Sauce Recipes

30-MINUTE CHICKEN MARINARA SAUCE

Steps:

• Trim chicken breast of any fat. Cut into slices across the grain of the meat about 3/8 inch thick, then cut again the other way to make more bit size pieces
• Shred onion with the large side of a shredder. You can also chop the onion instead-but simmer a bit longer.
• In a large skillet add a tablespoon of butter or olive oil over medium-high heat. Saute the chicken for about 5 minutes, add the onion and cook until clearing of the onion-about 10-12 minutes total. Add the garlic the last few minutes of cooking.
• Add all other spices and tomatoes. Simmer for at least 15 minutes-cook pasta during the simmering time.
• Serve over cooked pasta or in other dishes.

PRESSURE COOKER 30 MINUTE MARINARA SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat Pressure Cooker on medium heat and add olive oil.
• Chop onion and garlic however fine you like and add to hot oil.
• Cook for a minute do not brown!
• Throw in the rest of your spices except salt.
• Throw in the carrot( I leave it in large chunks and remove it but you may keep it in sauce if you like so you can cut it to whatever size you like or even mince it).
• Add the can of Tomatoes and some water--I use about 1/4 of the tomato can full of water -- it gets thick so you need to add enough or it could stick and burn.
• Put lid on cooker and bring to pressure. Turn down enough to keep it low but still have pressure in pot. Cook for 1/2 Hour. Turn off and bring pressure down by either quick release method or take off burner and let it naturally release.
• Take of lid and taste --add salt, maybe a pinch of sugar if you want. You can also stir in some more EVOO at this point remove carrot (or not), Voila! Done!
• *** I like it on Penne pasta with some grated Pecorino Romano and Parmesan cheese but you can use it on whatever you like. Lasagana, Veal Cutlet. Makes a good base for Clam Zuppa sauce or Tuna sauce.
