"Delicious and Easy!"

"This reminds me of my Mom's recipe from my childhood, except that she used a whole cut up chicken so everyone could choose their favorite part of the chicken. Also she added the tomatoes to cook with the chicken at a low simmer for at least an hour rather than making a separate sauce."

Braised Chicken Cacciatore

Ingredients

1 package	PERDUE® HARVESTLAND® Chicken Thighs or PERDUE® Chicken Thighs
1/2 tsp.	salt
1/4 tsp.	ground black pepper
1/2 cup	all-purpose flour
3 tbsp.	olive oil
8 ounces	cremini mushrooms, quartered
1 medium	green pepper, sliced
1 medium	onion, sliced
1 jar	(24-ounce) chunky spaghetti sauce

Step one: Season

Season the chicken thighs with salt and pepper. Dredge in the flour and pat to removes the excess.

How to: Seasoning

Step two: Sear

In a large heavy skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken thighs to the pan and sauté until brown all over, about 5 minutes per side. Transfer the chicken to a plate and set aside.

Step three: Simmer

In the same skillet, add the mushrooms and sauté until browned, stirring occasionally, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the peppers and onions, and sauté for 2 to 3 minutes. Add the spaghetti sauce and mix well. Add back the chicken (with any juices). Simmer over medium-low heat until the chicken is cooked through, about 20 minutes. Chicken is done when it feels firm to the touch and a meat thermometer inserted in the center reaches 170°F.

Step four: Serve

Transfer the chicken to a platter. Spoon the sauce over the chicken and serve. Chicken Cacciatore can be served with polenta, pasta, mashed potatoes or on its own with Italian bread!
