Ingredients

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 pound ground chicken
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning or a blend of oregano, basil, thyme, and parsley
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon granulated garlic or garlic powder
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
15- ounce can tomato sauce
2 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese plus more for serving
6 ounces mozzarella cheese preferably fresh mozzarella, cubed or pulled apart into bite-size pieces
Fresh basil for serving optional

Instructions

Heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook until no longer pink, breaking up the meat as it cooks.
Add the Italian seasoning, onion powder, granulated garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper and stir to coat. Cook for 1 minute, until the herbs are fragrant.
Add the tomato sauce and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 10 minutes. Stir in the parmesan cheese. Season to taste with salt and black pepper.
Ladle the stew into bowls and top with the mozzarella and fresh basil, if using. Serve with more parmesan cheese on the side.
