Tuscan Chicken Tomato Roast

Tuscany is famous for fresh local ingredients which they use to cook home-style dishes like this Chicken Tomato Roast. Fresh herbs and top quality tomatoes are the key. We recommend using Knorr Tomato Pronto which will cut the cooking time down by 15 minutes as the tomatoes are already cooked before packaging. View the full recipe below.
