Just like the vegan cacciatore only adding chicken to make a complete meal makes this dish flavorful.
- 1 whole chicken cut into your favorite eating pieces
- 1 each yellow, green, red, and orange peppers cut into bit size hunks
- 1 can of tomato sauce
- 1 can diced tomatoes
- 1/2 onion diced
- Olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon thyme
- 1 teaspoon oregano
- 1 package mushrooms…… I like to slice these myself
- Salt to taste
In a braising pan heat oil and cook chicken pieces until outside skin is brown, I put a lid on it for about five minutes on each side……the entire pieces of chicken do not have to be cooked through, you will finish cooking thoroughly later. After chicken has some brown on it remove from pan, add peppers, mushrooms and onions. Stir for a few minutes then add diced tomatoes and sauce. Add seasonings.
Cook for about ten minutes, add chicken pieces back put a lid on it and simmer for 30 minutes or more. Until chicken is cooked and tender. Serve with white of wild rice.
Variations: you can always substitute fresh produce for canned or store bought.
This should make enough for four people. As always we hope you enjoy.
