Spanish Chicken

This recipe came from the a card that came with my Turbocooker, a moment of weakness. It is designed to steam and cook at the same time, but you can get much the same effect from a skillet or Dutch oven with a tight fitting lid. Don't be afraid of the amount of onion, it cooks down considerably. Besides as we always have said in my family, you can never have too much onion.

4 Chicken Thighs
1 c Onion,Chopped
1 cn No Salt Added Tomato Sauce
1 t Garlic Powder
1 t Paprika
1 t Basil
1 t Black Pepper
1 t Parsley
1/4 c Water

Combine spices in a plastic bag. Add chicken pieces and shake to coat evenly. Place chicken and onions in skillet with a lid. Add water. Cover and cook for 10 minutes. Turn and cook 10 minutes more. Pour sauce over and continue about until done through, about 10 more minutes. Serve with pasta or rice. Spoon sauce and onion mixture over.
