A Little Different Pasta Meal

I used two boneless skinless chicken breasts for this. That was plenty. I also removed the skin from the sausage and used turkey sausage. We enjoyed this meal as we watched Penn State make a "House" call on Michigan this weekend.
CHICKEN WITH SWEET ITALIAN SAUSAGE

2 tbsp vegetable oil
1 lb sweet Italian sausage, cut in 8 pieces
3 lb chicken, cut up in 8 pieces
1 medium onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 can (28 oz) crushed tomatoes in puree
1 can (8 oz) tomato sauce
1 tsp red wine vinegar
2 1/2 tsp chili powder (original said 3 tsp)
1 1/2 tsp ground cumin (original said 2 tsp)
3/4 tsp fennel seed
1 tsp rosemary
1/2 tsp marjoram
1/2 tsp salt
1/8 tsp pepper
1 1/2 tsp sugar

Brown sausage pieces in oil in a 6 quart pot, remove and set aside. Then brown chicken pieces skin side down first and turn. Remove chicken and set aside. Add onion and garlic to oil and cook 5 minutes. Add and mix tomatoes, tomato sauce, vinegar and seasonings. Return chicken and sausage to the pot, cover and simmer 35 to 45 minutes. Serve over favorite pasta.
