Chicken Parmesan Easy One Pot Meal

Easy-One-Pan-Chicken-Parmesan-with-Chunky-tomato-garlic-and-onion

My daughters had their Spring ballet recital this weekend, so Grandma and Grandpa came to visit to watch them perform. We LOVE visitors now that we finally have room for people to stay at our house!

Luckily for me, everyone gets involved when it comes to family mealtime. On this particular night, we made a #Saucesome and easy one-pot Chicken Parmesan with Ragú® Chunky Tomato, Garlic & Onion Sauce. We also had some yummy garlic bread with Ragú® Classic Alfredo sauce to dip it in.

Dad and Gracie started by chopping the chicken into bite-sized pieces. It’s easier for the kids this way, and then you won’t spend the entire mealtime cutting up chicken for the little people.

Next, season chicken pieces with garlic salt. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a skillet or pot, and cook your chicken completely. Remove your chicken from the pot and cover with foil so it stays warm.

To finish your meal, combine 1 jar of Ragú® with 2 cups of water and let it come to a boil. Then add 4 oz of spaghetti. Stir occasionally until the noodles are soft. Top with cooked chicken, parmesan, and parsley and serve! It’s so easy to make, and everyone in your family will love the flavor of the Ragú® Chunky Tomato Garlic & Onion Sauce!

Grandma Julie is the biggest help when she comes to visit, and she also loves to cook. She’s #Saucesome with the kids too. She was teaching Max how to cut the broccoli, and he was so proud of himself. Sophie really wanted to help, but frankly, no one trusts her with a knife. Meal time is always a good time at our house. With three small kids that like to show off their comedy skills, especially when we have guests, it’s hard to get them to focus on the task at hand – eating dinner! But with a delicious tasting meal inspired by Ragú®, we were able to enjoy a family meal while still being silly. Not to mention the yummy garlic bread dipped in Ragú® Classic Alfredo that no one could resist. I’m pretty sure they would have drunk it if I would have let them!

See what I mean, we have a bunch of comedians around here! They think they’re really funny!
