Flo's Chicken & Spaghetti


This is such a nostalgic dish for me. I haven't eaten this for MANY years and I have never cooked it before myself. It's a meal my grandma would make a lot. I always remember as a child, the chicken and sauce simmering in a pan, it would smell up her house and we would always have this meal with buttered bread. My grandpa loved buttered bread. I would often have dinner there or breakfast before school depending on my parents work schedule. They were such great times and I cherish them. My mother gave me the most information on the recipe she could remember and it's not many ingredients, but the flavor is there. It's a simple dish, but so good. The chicken cooking in the sauce brings this significant taste I remember from many years ago. The recipe may not be exact but the moment I tasted the sauce on the spoon while cooking, I knew my grandma was there helping me make this meal. The recipe calls for: chicken thighs or breasts (I used breasts, but my grandma used thighs) 1 large can of tomato sauce 1 small can of tomato paste variety spices: garlic powder, oregano, chicken seasoning salt/pepper 1 tbs olive oil whole grain spaghetti (My grandma would use regular spaghetti) -- Heat the olive oil in a large pot/pan. Once heated, add the chicken. Add salt, pepper, oregano, garlic powder and chicken seasonings to both sides of the chicken and cook the chicken. -- Add the tomato sauce and paste to the pot/pan. Let this simmer for an hour. -- Cook the pasta and add it to the pot/pan once the hour of simmering is finished. Stir and serve. Enjoy this special recipe!

Positive vibes,
