Add remaining 1 1/2 tsp. oil to skillet. Stir in onion, garlic and diced red pepper. Saute until onion is softened, but not browned, about 2 minutes. Drain juice from tomatoes and add to pan. Chop tomatoes and add to pan. Stir in fresh chopped rosemary and simmer for 2 minutes. Return chicken to pan and heat through. Serve immediately over hot cooked rice.

NOTES : This is delicious served with white or brown rice or even steamed new potatoes, couscous or linguine.
