Classic Chicken Cacciatore with a Special Ingredient...
Рет қаралды 154,078
Күн бұрынChicken Cacciatore (Hunter's Chicken) is such a great recipe! I encourage you to use skin-on chicken thighs and chicken legs for this classic Italian chicken recipe. The crispy skin along with the combination of oil-cured black olives, Sicilian green olives, peppers, onions, and tomatoes all in a hearty white wine tomato sauce is truly the best! I hope you make and enjoy this classic chicken alla cacciatore recipe.

"Don't think you have to everything perfect" is the best advice. The "do it if you want or don't if you don't" advice is why I subbed to this channel. After watching people tell you how to make *perfect* scrambled eggs this channel is a breath of fresh air.

I absolutely love watching you cook. Your recipes are almost the same as my Italian family have handed down through the generations. I am second generation Italian. Both set of grandparents came from Italy. I am the only renegade, I now live in CA. I found a great Italian store for all the good ingredients. I love that you say don't do everything perfectly. That is the way I learned, no exact measurements. Thank you, because I feel I am back home on the east coast at my relatives, asking "didyoueat", all one word. I made this recipe tonight, it was as good as you made it look!

This looks DECLICIOUS - I definitely need to try it this way! There really are so many recipes throughout Italy for making chicken cacciatore. I guess it depends on where you're from. In the Puglia region where I'm from - it's all done on the stove top - it's primarily a sauce (whole peeled tomatoes crushed with hands) cooked with garlic - and red or white wine - then as the sauce is cooking we submerge previously browned chicken pieces to the sauce - salt, pepper, and the key ingredient where I'm from is oregano. We cook the chicken in the sauce on the stove top until the meat practically falls off the bone - because of this many people remove the skin. I do. Sometimes they cook with the skin because it adds more flavor, but remove it before eating. We use the sauce over pasta with grated cheese. The aroma of this simplified version is amazing!
@SipandFeast 2 жыл бұрын
This is definitely not the traditional way. My Grandmother made it the way you describe right on the stovetop. We did eat the skin, but I was never that big of a fan of it when it was mushy. Thanks for liking the video.

@frederickimbimbo6246 2 жыл бұрын
I made this Thursday night and it was delicious. I had to skip the olives because of the salt. I used 8 bone-in chicken thighs red roasted pepper and eggplant for the hunters. But the most important thing is this recipe is the searing and the braising with skin side up for the finish in the oven on top of San Marzano tomatoes. Pecorino Romano and parsley on serving. Tender, and juicy chicken, full of flavor. This is another winner James. And didn't have the recipe under my nose. My mother never used recipes. After watching you, it becomes intuitive. We have lots of leftovers, easy to warm up in a pan. I am throwing out the microwave. It ruins well prepared food like this.
