Spaghetti Sauce and then Chicken and Zucchini Pasta

I made homeade spaghetti sauce and then used it in the recipe included in this post.

Sauce recipe:

Ingredients:

• 2 teaspoons olive oil
• 1 small onion, chopped
• 1/2 green pepper, chopped
  
• 2 teaspoons crushed garlic
• 1 (28 ounce) can tomatoe sauce
• 1 small can tomatoe paste
  
• 4 teaspoons dried basil
• 4 teaspoons dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon white sugar
• 1/2 cup chicken broth
• 1-2 cups water, depends on desired thickness

Directions for Sauce:

In a large saucepan heat oil over medium heat. Saute onion, green pepper and garlic. When onions are clear, stir in tomatoe sauce, tomatoe paste basil, oregano, chicken broth and sugar. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, and simmer for 2-3 hours. Add water, as needed, for desired thickness.

Once I made the sauce, I then used a chicken breast, a small zucchini, a half cup of grated parmesan and 2 tbsp of italian seasoning to make the rest. I simply browned the chicken breast and zucchini in a non-stick pan with some oil. Once browned, I sprinkled the cheese and italian season over them and let them cook for 20 minutes. Finally, I cooked up some noodles, poured sauce over the noodles and then added the chicken and zucchini mixture. It was really good!
