18 cherry peppers in brine (such as Peppadew®)
6 ounces fresh Italian sausage
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 onion, sliced
1 pinch salt

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
3/4 pound sweet or hot Italian sausage, cut into chunks
3/4 pound skinless, boneless chicken breasts, cut into chunks
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 small onion, chopped
2 Italian green frying peppers, cut into 1-inch pieces
3 cloves garlic, roughly chopped
1/2 cup dry white wine
3/4 cup low-sodium chicken broth
1/4 cup roughly chopped fresh parsley
2 jarred pickled cherry peppers, chopped, plus 2 tablespoons liquid from the jar

Steps:

  • Heat 1 tablespoon butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the sausage until golden, about 2 minutes. Season the chicken with salt and pepper, then toss with the flour in a bowl; add to the skillet and cook until browned but not cooked through, about 3 minutes.
  • Add the onion, peppers, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste and cook 3 minutes. Add the wine, scraping up any browned bits; bring to a boil and cook until slightly reduced, about 1 minute. Add the broth and bring to a gentle simmer. Cover and cook until the sausage and chicken are cooked through, about 5 minutes.
  • Transfer the chicken, sausage and vegetables to a platter with a slotted spoon. Increase the heat to high and stir the parsley and cherry peppers and their liquid into the skillet; boil until reduced by one-third, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the remaining 1 tablespoon butter. Pour the sauce over the chicken mixture.

HOT CHICKEN WITH SAUSAGES, TOMATOES & PEPPERS



Hot chicken with sausages, tomatoes & peppers image

Cook this moreish meat feast of chicken thighs with spicy sausages, tomatoes and peppers. It tastes great served with pilaf rice or mashed potatoes

Provided by Diana Henry

Categories     Dinner, Main course

Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 tbsp olive oil
8 good-sized skin-on chicken thighs
4 (about 400g) spicy sausages
2-3 roasted red peppers from a jar, depending on their size (Peppadew are good in this)
2 red onions , halved and cut into crescent moon-shaped slices
400g can cherry tomatoes
1 tsp chilli flakes
8 garlic cloves , grated to a purée
2 tbsp sherry vinegar
4 rosemary sprig , leaves picked from 1, the others left whole
125ml chicken stock

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Heat half the oil in a big shallow casserole dish in which the thighs can lie in a single layer - one 30cm across is ideal, if you use a bigger dish the sauce may evaporate. Quickly brown the chicken on both sides - you don't want to cook the chicken through, just get some colour on it - then remove from the pan. Do the same with the sausages in the remaining oil, colouring them all over. Cut the sausages on the diagonal into three or four pieces. Drain the peppers of their brine and cut into broad strips.
  • Add the onions and tomatoes to the dish or roasting tin with the chilli, garlic, seasoning, sherry vinegar, rosemary and sausages. Heat the stock and add that too. Mix everything together. Arrange so that the chicken is on top. Bake in the oven for 30 mins, stirring the 'sauce' that forms around the vegetables halfway through.
  • When 30 mins is up, add the peppers and cook for another 10 mins. The chicken should be cooked through with a thick sauce around it. Serve with rice pilaf, little potatoes that you've roasted in olive oil or mashed potato (mash or rice with a little saffron in it would be lovely).
