100ml of Chicken Stock
¼ Tsp of Sugar
125g of Mozzerella Ball, torn into pieces
40g of Grated Italian Style Cheese
1 Tsp of Mixed Herbs
Salt & Pepper to season

(3) In a frying pan with a little Oil fry the Onions until softened.
(4) Add the Garlic and Tomato Puree & cook for a further minute or so.
(5) Pour in the Passata and Stock, season with Salt & Pepper.
(6) Add the Sugar and bring to the boil.

(8) Pour half of the sauce into a roasting tin and place the Chicken on top.
(9) Cover with the remaining sauce.
(10) Arrange the Mozzerella on top and sprinkle over the Italian Style Grated Cheese & Mixed Herbs.

We have quite a bit of sauce in a tub in the fridge which we’ll use up today. The quantity of sauce would suit 4 Chicken Breasts. But, well you know there’s only the two of us…..
