Also from Southern Living long ago...when I'm in the mood, I add some chopped black and or green olives. If you don't want the wine, adjust the liquid with more broth and tomato sauce, and add a tsp lemon juice.
List of Ingredients
3 1/2 lbs chicken pieces (used breast meat only)
1 1/2 teaspoons salt, divided
1/2 teaspoon pepper, divided
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 medium onion, chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
1 (28 ounces) can diced tomatoes(used whole plum tomatoes and cut them)
1 (6 ounces) can tomato paste
1/2 cup chicken broth

1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried basil
2 cups sliced fresh mushrooms (only had a cup)
1 cup dry red wine
1 (16 ounces) package linguine, cooked
Recipe
Sprinkle chicken with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.

Add onion to the skillet and saute 5 minutes over medium heat, or until transparent.
Add minced garlic, saute 1 minute.
