Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Season the chicken pieces with seasoning salt (or regular salt) and pepper.
  2. Place the flour in a heavy plastic bag; add in chicken pieces and coat completely with flour.
  3. Heat oil in a large heavy skillet or Dutch oven over medium heat (I use my large electric frypan for this).
  4. Add in the chicken pieces to the skillet and brown for about 4 minutes on each side.
  5. Transfer to a plate.
  6. Pour off some of the fat, and leave a little in the skillet.
  7. Add in mushrooms, green bell peppers, chopped garlic, onion, crushed red pepper flakes and oregano; saute until onion is tender (about 10 minutes).
  8. Add/mix in marinara sauce, chicken broth, wine and capers.
  9. Return the chicken to the skillet, tossing the sauce over the chicken; bring sauce to a boil, reduce heat to medium low.
  10. Cover skillet and simmer until chicken is tender (about 35 minutes, or more).
  11. Using long tongs transfer the chicken to a large serving platter.
  12. Boil the sauce until slightly thickened (about another 5 minutes).
  13. Spoon the sauce over chicken.
  14. Serve with grated Parmesan cheese.
  15. Delicious!
