Chicken Scarpariello is the classic Italian-American "shoemaker style" dish of crispy skin chicken braised with sausage, peppers, and onions. It is tangy and spicy, and very comforting.

Ingredients

Servings
  • 2 1/2 pounds bone-in skin-on chicken thighs (4 to 5 large chicken thighs)
  • salt and black pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 3-4 links hot Italian sausage about 1 pound - use mild Italian sausage for less spicy
  • 1 medium onion sliced
  • 1 large red bell pepper sliced
  • 8 cloves garlic chopped
  • 10 pickled cherry peppers hot or sweet + 1/4 cup pickling juice from the jar
  • 1/2 cup dry white wine
  • 1 cup chicken stock low-sodium
  • For Serving. Fresh chopped parsley, red chili flakes.

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  2. Heat the oil in an oven safe skillet or Dutch oven to medium heat. Pat the chicken dry and season with salt and pepper to taste. Sear the chicken, skin sides down, for 5 minutes or until the skins brown and crisp up. Flip the chicken and cook another 3-4 minutes. Remove the chicken to a plate and set aside.
  3. Reheat the skillet and add the sausages. Cook 3-4 minutes per side to brown. Remove the sausages and slice each into 4 pieces. Set aside.
  4. Reheat the skillet and add the onion and bell pepper strips. Cook 2 minutes to soften slightly.
  5. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute, or until the fragrance blooms.
  6. Add the cherry peppers with the pickling liquid and the white wine. Stir up the brown bits from the bottom of the pan (may need a bit of scraping), then cook another 2-3 minutes to reduce the liquid by half.
  7. Pour in the chicken stock, then add the sausage and chicken (skin side up) back to the skillet. Arrange the chicken so that the skins remain above the liquid.
  8. Set the skillet in the oven and bake for 30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
  9. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley, red chili flakes, and serve.

Notes

  • Chicken should register 165 degrees F internally when measured with a meat thermometer.
