This sounds like something we would fry up for weekend breakfasts - we'd use a couple of fresh tomatoes instead of tinned. :)
Julia, this seems like it would be quite runny as 500gms of tomatoes would produce a lot of liquid?  I'd possibly be inclined to use a smaller can? Or do you think it's supposed to be runny? ???

If you left the MC off and put the steaming basket on top, the excess liquid might evaporate Tan.

In some photos I have seen of it, it does look runny and in others not.  I have made Pisto Toledano before (not in the TM) which also includes chicken and that looks a it bit runny (see photo below), but If you want to to be made less so, just follow JD's advice re the MC and steaming basket.
