Gluten-Free Baked Chicken Cacciatore image

When I learned that I was gluten intolerant, I had to adjust many of my recipes to meet my own dietary needs. With a few changes to my mother's original baked chicken cacciatore recipe, I was able to enjoy this childhood favorite food. Serve with pasta or polenta.

Time 2h15m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 tablespoon olive oil, or more as needed
3 medium skinless, boneless chicken breasts, thinly sliced
1 (8 ounce) package sliced white mushrooms
2 large green bell peppers, diced
1 onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
3 (15 ounce) cans tomato sauce
ΒΌ cup red wine
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 teaspoon chopped fresh basil, or more to taste
1 teaspoon chopped fresh oregano, or more to taste
salt and ground black pepper to taste
25 slices fresh mozzarella cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook chicken until lightly browned on each side, 5 to 7 minutes total. Remove from the skillet and arrange on the bottom of a 9x13-inch clear glass baking dish. Place mushrooms on top and set aside.
  • Place bell peppers, onion, and garlic in the same skillet and cook over medium heat until onions are translucent, adding more oil if necessary, about 5 minutes. Stir in tomato sauce, wine, brown sugar, basil, and oregano. Reduce heat and let simmer for at least 1 hour. Season with salt and pepper. Pour sauce over chicken and mushrooms.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 35 minutes. Remove from the oven and arrange mozzarella slices on top. Continue to bake until bubbly, about 10 minutes more.
