Chicken Marengo

I’m a boy mom, so I’m always looking for meals that are satisfying and a good bang for their buck. This chicken Marengo is protein-packed and full of flavor, perfect for filling those bottomless bellies!

Similar to chicken Provencal, this one-pan chicken dish is made from savory chicken simmered in a tomato-based sauce. Legend has it, this was the favorite post-battle dish of Napoleon Bonaparte!
