Chicken Caccictore...Source: Jim Mixson This recipe works well with boneless chicken breasts or with thigh and drumstick pieces. Just remove the bone after cooking for the latter. Chop 1 medium onion and cook in skillet with oil until tender. Save aside in a large pot. Add more oil, and cook about 1 1/2 - 2 pounds chicken for 15-20 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste. To the onions (above), add: - 1/4 to 1/2 green pepper, chopped - 4 ounces mushroom stems and pieces - 15 ounce can tomato sauce - 15 ounce can stewed tomatoes (original recipe with onions, peppers and celery) - 1/2 T oregano or 1/2 T Italian seasoning - 1 t garlic powder - 1/2 t rosemary - 2 bay leaves - 1/4 C white wine - season to taste as desired Add the chicken, cover and simmer for 30 minutes. Reheat later for 10-15 minutes or simmer an additional 10-15 minutes (uncovered). Serve hot over noodles. |
