A good tomato sauce needs time while cooking to develop flavour, so to speed things up, we're using a jarred version to coat this tender baked chicken. Serve with couscous to soak up all the sauce.

Ingredients

Method

In large skillet, heat half of the oil over medium heat; cook onion and garlic, stirring occasionally, until fragrant and light golden, about 6 minutes.

Stir in zucchini and herb seasoning; cook until zucchini is softened, about 4 minutes. Remove from pan and set aside.

Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper. In same skillet, heat remaining oil over medium heat; cook chicken until light golden, about 3 minutes per side.

Pour pasta sauce into greased 8-cup (2 L) casserole dish. Drain any liquid from zucchini mixture; stir mixture into sauce. Top with chicken. Bake in 400 F (200 C) oven until chicken is no longer pink inside, 10 to 12 minutes.

Sprinkle with Cheddar cheese; broil until cheese is melted, about 2 minutes.
