Rosemary Chicken With Tomato Sauce

Submitted by English_Rose

"This Italian-style casserole will warm you up, and it's great value too. Make it with tuna for ITALIAN TUNA SPAGHETTI: Boil 14oz spaghetti. Soften the onion, rosemary, garlic and anchovies in the oil for a few mins. Pour in the tomatoes and capers with the wine, if using, and simmer for 5 mins. Drain a 7oz can tuna and flake into the sauce. Warm through for a few mins, stirring, then toss with the drained spaghetti and serve with garlic bread."
