SKILLET CHICKEN MOZZARELLA 
1 med. green pepper
1 sm. onion
2 med. (1 lb.) zucchini
2 lg. chicken breasts, boned and skinned
2 tbsp. all-purpose flour
1/4 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. pepper
2 tbsp. salad oil
3/4 (15 oz.) jar spaghetti sauce (1 c.)
1/2 tsp. sugar
1/2 (8 oz.) pkg. Mozzarella cheese, sliced

Cut green pepper into bite-size pieces. Slice onion. Cut each zucchini lengthwise into quarters; cut each quarter into 3/4 inch chunks. Set vegetables aside.

Cut each chicken breast in half. With meat mallet or dull edge of French knife, pound each chicken breast half to 1/4 inch thickness.

On waxed paper, combine flour, salt, and pepper; coat chicken pieces with flour mixture.

In 10-inch skillet over medium-high heat, in hot salad oil, cook chicken pieces until browned on both sides. Remove chicken to plate. In drippings remaining in skillet over medium heat, cook onion and green pepper until tender-crisp, stirring frequently.

Return chicken to skillet; add spaghetti sauce, sugar, and zucchini; over high heat, heat to boiling. Reduce heat to low; cover and simmer 15 minutes or until chicken and vegetables are fork-tender. Top chicken breast with Mozzarella cheese; cover and simmer until cheese is melted, about 2 minutes. Makes 4 servings. 470 calories per serving.
