- Add 1 pound of boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces, and cook until browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes.
- Add 1 small onion, chopped, and 2 cloves of garlic, minced, to the skillet and cook until softened, about 3 minutes.
- Stir in 1 (28-ounce) can of crushed tomatoes, 1 (15-ounce) can of great northern beans (rinsed and drained), 1 cup of chicken broth, 1 teaspoon of dried oregano, 1/2 teaspoon of dried basil, 1/4 teaspoon of red pepper flakes (optional), and salt and pepper to taste.

- Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley, if desired.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
