Chicken in the Style of the Hunter’s Wife


Serves: 4
Total Calories: 169

Ingredients

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 chicken (about 3 1/2 pounds), cut into 8 serving pieces
2 medium onions, chopped
1 rib celery, chopped
1 carrot, chopped
1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
1 yellow bell pepper, thinly sliced
1/2 cup dry white wine
4 ripe tomatoes, peeled, seeded, and chopped, or 2 cups canned tomatoes
6 fresh basil leaves, torn into bits
2 teaspoons chopped fresh rosemary
salt and freshly ground black pepper

Directions:

1 Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Rinse and pat the chicken pieces dry. Cook the chicken, turning the pieces frequently until browned on all sides, about 15 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a plate. Tip the pan and skim off all but 2 tablespoons of the fat.

2 Add the onions, celery, carrot, and peppers to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are lightly browned, about 15 minutes.

3 Return the chicken to the skillet. Add the wine and bring to a simmer. Stir in the tomatoes, basil, rosemary, and salt and pepper to taste. Bring to a simmer and cook, turning the chicken pieces occasionally, until the chicken juices run clear when the thigh is pierced in the thickest part, about 20 minutes. Serve hot.
