Description

This recipe calls for added wine, which is traditional. It does add to the flavor. If you have a dietary restriction that prohibits wine, just omit.

Ingredients:

  • 1 (4-pound) chicken, cut into serving pieces, trimmed of excess fat (or 3 1/2 to 4 pounds of chicken thighs, bone-in, skin-on)
  • Salt
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 medium onion, thinly sliced root to tip, about 1 1/2 cups
  • 1 red or green bell pepper, seeded, sliced into 1/4-inch-wide slices
  • 8 ounces cremini mushrooms, thickly sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
  • 1/3 cup white or red wine
  • 2 1/2 to 3 cups peeled and chopped, firm ripe tomatoes, with their juices, or 1 (28-ounce) can of plum tomatoes in their juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon dry thyme (or 2 teaspoons fresh, chopped)
  • 1 teaspoon oregano (or 2 teaspoons fresh, chopped)
