Chicken Cacciatore
This is one of my favourite italian dish , not only that they’re easy , but they also taste really good . On top of chicken marsala , this is my next choice for home made italian meal ! Not going to say too much of anything , the ingredients are simple , nothing to complicated , and most of us , would have it on hand already !!
You need :
6 chicken thighs , or 4 chicken thighs and 2 breasts , i prefer dark meat , they taste better than white in my opinion
flour , salt and pepper
Wash chicken , pat dry and then sprinkle with salt and pepper , and smoked paprika , and then dredge on all purpose flour . Heat olive oil in a skillet , and brown the chicken 5 minutes on each side . Then remove and set aside .
1 large onion , chopped
1 large red bell pepper , chopped
5 garlic , minced
3/4 cup of white wine
1 cup of chicken broth
1 – 28 oz can of diced tomatoes , with its juice
1 1/2 tsp. of dried oregano
salt and pepper
basil
1 . In the same skillet you use for the chicken , add little more olive oil and then add onion , garlic and red bell pepper , saute for 5 minutes . Then add the white wine , simmer until it evaporated about 3 minutes , then add chicken broth , salt pepper , oregano and diced tomatoes into the skillet . Bring to boil . Return the chicken into the skillet , let it cook for 30 minutes or until chicken are cooked through . Make sure you flip the chicken few times , so it doesn’t stick on the pan .
