INGREDIENTS
Proteins
- 🍗 2 (3 pound) whole chickens, each cut into 8 pieces
Seasoning and Spices
- 🧂 Salt to taste
- Ground black pepper to taste
- 2 teaspoons chopped fresh oregano
Vegetables
- 🧅 1 yellow onion, chopped
- 1 large green bell pepper, seeded and chopped
- 🧄 6 cloves garlic, minced
- 🍄 1 pound white button mushrooms, quartered
Tomato Base
- 🍅 1 (28 ounce) can whole peeled tomatoes in juice, coarsely chopped
- 🍅 2 tablespoons tomato paste
Liquids
- 🍷 ¾ cup white wine
- 1 ½ cups chicken stock
Others
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 tablespoons capers, drained and rinsed
- 2 tablespoons coarsely chopped fresh basil
STEPS
Season the chicken pieces with salt and black pepper.
Place the flour in a shallow bowl. Press each chicken piece into the flour and tap off excess.
Heat the olive oil in a large Dutch oven over medium heat until almost smoking hot.
Pan-fry the chicken until golden brown on both sides, about 3 minutes per side. Work in batches so as to not overcrowd the pan. Set the browned chicken aside.
Stir the onion, green bell pepper, and garlic into the Dutch oven; cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 5 minutes.
Stir in the mushroom; cook until they release their juice, 5 to 8 more minutes.
Mix in oregano, tomatoes, tomato paste, white wine, and chicken stock; bring to a boil.
Return the chicken pieces to the sauce, cover the pan, reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer until the chicken is no longer pink inside and the juices run clear, 30 to 40 minutes.
Stir in capers and sprinkle with basil to serve.
