Quick Italian Chicken (Dena)

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
2 cans Italian stewed tomatoes
2 Tbsp. cornstarch
1/4 tsp. oregano (opt.)
1/4 c. grated parmesan cheese
Slightly flatten each chicken breast or cut into strips or bite sized pieces. Place in a shallow baking dish. Cover w/ foil. Bake at 425 for 20 min. or until tender. While the chicken is baking, Combine tomatoes, cornstarch and oregano in a sauce pan. (I usually blend up the tomatoes w/a small handheld blender because my family prefers it smoother.) Stir to disolve cornstarch. Cook, stirring constantly, until thickened. When chicken is done, remove foil and drain. Pour tomato sauce over chicken and top w/ cheese. Return to oven and bake for 5 min. uncovered, or until it is heated through. Serve over/with rice.
