Chicken Cacciatori Recipe

Cooking Steps

1. 1

   Prepare the Chicken

   Season the chicken thighs with salt and black pepper on both sides.

2. 2

   Sear the Chicken

   In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned chicken thighs and sear for about 5-7 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

3. 3

   Sauté the Vegetables

   In the same skillet, add the chopped yellow onion and bell peppers. Sauté for about 5 minutes until the onion is translucent. Add minced garlic and sauté for another minute until fragrant.

4. 4

   Combine Ingredients

   Add the canned diced tomatoes, chicken broth, dried oregano, and dried basil to the skillet. Stir to combine.

5. 5

   Return Chicken to Skillet

   Place the seared chicken thighs back into the skillet, ensuring they are submerged in the sauce. If using, pour in the red wine.

6. 6

   Simmer

   Cover the skillet and reduce the heat to low. Let it simmer for 30-35 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and tender.

7. 7

   Garnish and Serve

   Once cooked, remove from heat, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve hot with pasta or crusty bread.
