Chicken Tomato Ceasar Skillet

10-12 chicken tenders
1+ Tbp. oil
1/4 cup chicken broth
1/2 cup caesar dressing (the creamier the better)
2 Tbsp of bacon, crumbled or bacon bits
2 garlic cloves, minced or 1/2 tsp. garlic powder
1 tsp dried basil leaves
2 Tbsp parsley
3-4 roma tomatoes chopped or 1 can italian diced tomatoes, drained

Cook chicken in hot oil in large covered skillet on med-high until brown on each side. Mix dressing, broth, garlic, and seasonings in a small bowl. Add caesar mixture to the chicken, simmer 3 minutes. Add tomatoes and bacon, stir. Cook 1-2 minutes. Use extra "sauce" to pour over potatoes.

I got this recipe from eatatmoms.blogspot.com another recipe blog that a friend of mine started with her friends. I made it on Sunday and it was awesome and so easy! Tyler loved it! I served it over red potatoes that I baked with a little olive oil and italian seasoning drizzled over them. I used Ken's Steakhouse Lite Creamy Ceasar and bacon bits to cut back on calories and fat and it worked great. Use fresh tomatoes if you can, that really added to the recipe. It honestly tastes gourmet and is hardly any work at all. Great recipe!!
