Chicken Cacciatore
Ingredients
- 4 tbsp olive oil
- 3 lbs chicken pieces (drumsticks, thighs, breasts)
- 3 medium onions, chopped
- 1/2 cup chicken broth
- 1/4 cup white wine
- fresh or dried parsley to taste
- red pepper chili flakes to taste (optional)
- salt & pepper to taste
- 1 lb spaghettini, angel hair, or spaghetti pasta
- 1/4 cup grated Romano cheese
Instructions
- Drizzle olive oil in deep pot. On medium heat, brown chicken pieces and put aside.
- Add onions to the pot and cook until translucent.
- Place the chicken back in the pot with chicken broth, wine, parsley, red pepper, salt & pepper. Simmer for about 45-50 minutes.
- When the chicken's almost done, make the pasta according to package instructions. Drain and add to the chicken pot. Stir and plate, sprinkling with grated cheese and enjoy!
Notes
To make it "red", you'll need 1-2 whole peeled plum tomatoes. "Squish" them into the pot, juice and all, when you add the chicken back into the pot. You can use red wine instead of white.
If you'd prefer to omit the wine, just replace with more chicken broth.
