How To Make Chicken Cacciatore Recipe?

1. Prepare the Chicken: Pat the chicken dry and season with salt and pepper.
2. Brown the Chicken: Heat olive oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Add the chicken, skin-side down, and cook for 8 minutes, flipping to brown both sides. Remove the chicken.
3. Cook the Vegetables: In the same pan, add the onion, celery, peppers, mushrooms, and garlic. Cook for 5-6 minutes, stirring often.
4. Add the Wine and Tomatoes: Pour in the red wine and cook for 2 minutes, then add the crushed tomatoes. Cook for another 5 minutes.
5. Cook the Chicken: Add the chicken back to the pan, cover, and simmer for 30 minutes until fully cooked.
6. Serve: Garnish with parsley and serve.

Recipe Tips:

• Pat the chicken dry: Drying the chicken before cooking ensures the skin crisps up perfectly.
• Use fresh thyme: Fresh thyme adds a more vibrant, aromatic flavor compared to dried.
• Cook skin-side down first: Starting with the skin-side down helps achieve a golden, crispy texture.
• Let the wine reduce: Allow the red wine to reduce before adding tomatoes to create a richer, more flavorful sauce.
• Simmer for 30 minutes: Let the chicken simmer in the sauce for 30 minutes to ensure it’s tender and fully cooked.

How To Store & Reheat Leftovers?

• Refrigerate: Cool the leftovers to room temperature, then store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
• Freeze: Cool completely before freezing in a freezer-safe container. It will last for 3 months.
• Reheat: Heat the Chicken Cacciatore in a pan over medium heat for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally until hot.
