Directions:
In a large dutch oven brown chicken on all sides in hot oil over medium heat about 15 minutes, turning occasionally. Remove chicken; reserve drippings in dutch oven and set chicken aside.
Add mushrooms, pepper, onion, and garlic to drippings in skillet. Cook and stir about 10 minutes or until vegetables are just tender. Return chicken to skillet.
Meanwhile, in a medium bowl combine undrained tomatoes, tomato paste, wine, sugar, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Pour over chicken in skillet. Bring to a boil and reduce heat. Simmer, covered, for 30 to 40 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink, turning once during cooking.
