Lower the heat to medium and cook the onion until translucent and fragrant (1-2 minutes) then add in the garlic and sauté until fragrant (about 30 seconds).

Add the peppers, carrot, and mushrooms and sauté for 5 minutes until vegetables soften.

Add the chicken back to the skillet, pushing the veggies aside to make room.

Pour in the crushed tomatoes, tomato paste (if using) and broth and season with salt, black pepper (to your taste), oregano, thyme, and crushed red pepper, if desired.

Mix the sauce and simmer uncovered for 5 minutes, then cover reduce heat to medium-low and allow to simmer (while stirring occasionally) for 25-35 minutes or until chicken is cooked through. Stir in the olives, if using, and garnish with fresh parsley or other herbs as desired.
