This recipe is from Bob Green's Best Life Diet.

It was a really good chicken recipe and super easy... I found it at http://www.bestliferecipes.com/

I substituted the pearl onions for regular onions and added zuchinni, but other than that I followed the recipe pretty close.

Chicken Marengo

2 teaspoons olive oil

4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves (about 1 1/4 pounds)

12 ounces fresh, white button mushrooms, sliced (about 5 cups)

2 cups frozen pearl onions, thawed


1 zucchini sliced

1 teaspoon minced garlic

1/2 teaspoon dried thyme, crushed

1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper

1 can (14 ounces) unsalted diced tomatoes (drained)

Heat oil until hot. Add chicken; cook until brown on both sides, turning once, about 3 minutes for each side. Remove chicken from pot.Add mushrooms, onions and garlic. Cook and stir until mushrooms are golden, about 10 minutes.

·  Return chicken to skillet. Stir in thyme and pepper. Add tomatoes with juice from can; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium low; cover and simmer until chicken is tender, about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Serve over rice.
