Ingredients
- 4 pcs chicken drumsticks
- 5 pcs chicken wings
- 5 pcs chicken thighs
- 1 bottle of passata or homemade tomato sauce
- 1 extra virgin olive oil (EVOO)
- 1 fresh Rosemary
- 1 celery stick Chopped
- ½ onion Chopped
- 2 carrots Chopped into small pieces
- 1 bunch of parsley Chopped finely
- 1 Glass of red wine
- 2 garlic cloves
- 1 salt & pepper
Instructions
- We're making this chicken cacciatore recipe traditional, without the slow cooker or crock pot. Start with a large casserole dish, add four tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil, and turn on the heat to medium-low.
- Add in all the chicken pieces, braising them on all sides until they start to turn golden brown.
- While they are browning, use a kitchen mallet to smash the garlic (skin on) and add it to the pan with the chicken.
- Add the lid to the pan and cook for a few minutes. Remove the lid, flip the chicken then cover it again and cook for 10 more minutes.
- Now, the meat is cooked on both sides and moist. Add the chopped carrots, onion, and celery to the pot for this chicken cacciatore recipe.
- Move the pieces of chicken around so the vegetables don’t just stay on top and everything cooks through well.
- Now cover and cook for about 10 minutes until the vegetables are softer.
- Next, move the chicken around once more before adding fresh rosemary, and then pour the wine on top.
- Again, cover and cook for another 10 minutes. Then, uncover the chicken and flip the pieces one more time before cooking this chicken cacciatore recipe without a lid until the wine evaporates.
- Add the homemade tomato sauce (or store-bought passata) and mix it through as best you can.
- Be generous with the salt and freshly ground black pepper. Sprinkle a little bit of parsley on top and stir.
- Slow cook everything for 10 minutes with a lid to help create a super flavorful chicken cacciatore recipe, then remove the rosemary and garlic.
- Cook the chicken cacciatore uncovered for the last 10 minutes. Once finished, add the rest of the parsley on top.
- E ora si mangia, Vincenzo’sPlate….Enjoy!
