Easy Chicken Cacciatore

I found this recipe on the back of a Del Monte Spaghetti Sauce can and it turned out delicious. The kids enjoyed theirs over spaghetti noodles while my DH and I ate it over brown rice. I also sprinkled some red pepper flakes on top of ours for an extra kick. It is very simple to make. Enjoy!
