                    Joining Recipezaar has caused me to start going back through old recipes and discovering old favorites that have  gotten lost  through the years. This is an old one that I got from a friend after eating it at her house and enjoying it. Italian food is always enjoyed at my house. Ingredients: 
                    
                        
                                                4 chicken breasts  |  
                                                4 tablespoons olive oil  |  
                                                1 (4 ounce) can sliced mushrooms, drained  |  
                                                1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste, plus  |  
                                                1 (6 ounce) can water  |  
                                                1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce, plus  |  
                                                1 (8 ounce) can water  |  
                                                1 (1 lb) can whole tomato, plus  |  
                                                1 (1 lb) can water  |  
                                                1/4 teaspoon ground cloves  |  
                                                1/4 teaspoon allspice  |  
                                                1/4 teaspoon pepper  |  
                                                2 teaspoons salt  |  
                                                1/4 teaspoon cinnamon  |  
                                                1 teaspoon rosemary  |  
                                                3 tablespoons dried parsley  |  
                                                1/2 teaspoon garlic powder  |  
                                                
                     
                    Directions: 
                    
                        
                            
                                1. Heat oil, brown chicken on each side for about 5 minutes, remove from pan and set aside. 2. In a large pot break up the whole tomatoes, add the onions, tomato sauces, water and mushrooms; bring to a boil, turn down heat and add chicken and spices. 3. Cook uncovered for about 2 hours or until chicken is done and sauce thickens. 4. CROCKPOT- If you prefer, brown the chicken and put everything together into a crockpot to cook, but allow more time for cooking. 5. This is good served with noodles- rigatoni or otherwise.                              |
