Chicken and White Bean Stew

I may try this next week and substitute cannellini beans for the navy beans.  Although I have both so we'll see.  I found this recipe in an email from Kraft Foods.  It will be a quick and easy but hearty meal.  I think it will also become a fan favorite for when the kids are here.

1 small onion, chopped
1/4 C. Italian dressing
1lb. boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1 inch pieces
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 14.5oz. can diced tomatoes, undrained
1 tsp. dried basil
1 15oz. can no salt added navy beans, drained
1/2 C. shredded mozzarella cheese

Cook onions in dressing in medium saucepan on medium heat for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally.  Add chicken and garlic; cook 5 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink, stirring occasionally.  Stir in tomatoes and basil; simmer 8 minutes or until chicken is done.

Add beans; stir.  Cook 2 minutes or until heated through, stirring occasionally.  Serve topped with cheese.
