"Giambotta" is an Italian soup or stew that is typically made with a variety of vegetables, such as eggplant, zucchini, bell peppers, and tomatoes. It is often served with pasta or bread. The name "giambotta" comes from the French word "jambe," which means "leg," and the Italian word "botta," which means "kick." This is because the dish is traditionally made with a variety of vegetables that are kicked or stomped on before they are cooked.

Categories     Poultry

Time 55m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 lb sweet Italian turkey sausage
2 red bell peppers, sliced
2 yellow onions, sliced
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 cup chopped fresh basil leaf
4 garlic cloves, chopped
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1 cup marsala wine
1 (15 ounce) can diced tomatoes
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
4 -6 fresh italian sandwich buns (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add the sausages and cook until brown on both sides, about 7 to 10 minutes. Remove from the pan and drain.
  • Keeping the pan over medium heat, add the peppers, onions, salt, and pepper and cook until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Add the oregano, basil, and garlic and cook 2 more minutes.
  • Add the tomato paste and stir. Add the Marsala wine, tomatoes, and chili flakes, if using. Stir to combine, scraping the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon to release all the browned bits. Bring to a simmer.
  • Cut the sausages into 4 to 6 pieces each, about 1-inch cubes. Add the sausage back to the pan and stir to combine. Cook until the sauce has thickened, about 20 minutes.
  • Serve in bowls. Or, if serving as a sandwich, split the rolls in half lengthwise. Hollow out the bread from the bottom side of each roll, being careful not to puncture the crust. Fill the bottom half of the roll with sausage mixture. Top and serve sandwiches immediately.

GIAMBOTTA



Giambotta image

This comes from "The Mafia Cookbook" by Joe Dogs Iannuzzi. It can be served as a side dish as the cookbook suggests or you can pour it over egg noddles and add a generous helping of parmesan for a heartier carb packed main dish.

Categories     Vegetable

Time 1h

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 -5 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1/2 cup olive oil
1 (35 ounce) can peeled chopped tomatoes
1 pinch of crushed dried oregano
2 medium boiling potatoes (to large)
2 cups green beans or 2 cups zucchini, approximately
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Heat skillet over medium heat.
  • Add oil and coat pan.
  • Add garlic and cook until soft, but not brown.
  • Drain liquid from tomatoes and reserve.
  • Add tomatoes and oregano to pan and cook 20-30 minutes over moderate heat, stirring occasionally.
  • While tomatoes are cooking parboil potatoes and beans separately (I've nuked potatoes in the micro and obtained satisfactory results- it's quicker than boiling).
  • Drain cooked (al dente preferably) beans and add them to the tomato mixture.
  • Cut potatoes into 1 inch cubes and add to sauce.
  • Cook for another 5-10 minutes (if the mixture needs more moisture or you just prefer this dish saucier you can add some of the reserved liquid at this stage).
  • Salt and pepper to taste.

CHICKEN GIAMBOTTA RECIPE - (3.9/5)



Chicken Giambotta Recipe - (3.9/5) image

Provided by lisalang

Number Of Ingredients 10

Sausage links sweet
chicken breast with bones cut up in small pieces
Peppers( red, orange, green)
4 Idaho potatoes
1 white or yellow onion, diced up
1/2 cup white wine
1 cup chicken broth
loads of garlic cloves smashed
Cherry peppers from the jar ( I like sweet but can use some hot)
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Bake sausage in oven 500, until crisp and brown, then cut up in pieces. Saute chicken breasts in a bit of olive oil, covered with salt and pepper, add with smashed garlic cloves, until brown and crisp in pot. Remove when crispy. Garlic can get very brown, but remove with chicken so it doesn't burn totally. In same pot, with a bit more olive oil, saute peppers, and onions, then add wine, broth, a bit of the cherry pepper juice, hot red pepper flakes. Back into the pot, add sausage, a few cherry peppers, and chicken back into pot. Let simmer a bit. Meanwhile, I cut up potatoes with skin on, in chunks and bake in oven with some olive oil, salt and pepper until very crispy. Right before serving I put crisp potatoes in. Can be made ahead of time, and reheated.
