Categories     dinner, weekday, main course

Time 1h10m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 3- to 4-pound chicken, cut up
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons safflower or vegetable oil
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 large onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 carrots, scraped and sliced
1 tablespoon tomato paste
4 ripe tomatoes, peeled, seeded and chopped
1/2 cup white-wine vinegar
3/4 cup dry white wine
1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
1/2 cup creme fraiche
1 cup basil leaves, snipped

Steps:

  • Wipe the chicken pieces dry with paper towels, sprinkle with salt and pepper and brown the pieces a few at a time in the safflower oil in a large skillet. Set the pieces aside and pour off the fat from the skillet.
  • Heat the olive oil in the skillet and gently soften the onion with the garlic and carrots over medium heat. Stir in the tomato paste, tomatoes, vinegar, wine and thyme leaves. Add the chicken pieces, cover and simmer over medium heat for 30 to 40 minutes, or until they are cooked. Stir occasionally, turning the pieces over in the sauce.
  • Remove the chicken to a serving dish and keep it warm in a low oven. Bring the sauce to a boil, and cook for about 10 minutes to reduce by about one-third. Stir in the creme fraiche and bring to a boil. Cook for five minutes. Correct seasoning and pour the sauce over the chicken pieces. Sprinkle with basil and serve at once.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients prepped and measured. This will help you stay organized and prevent any scrambling during the cooking process.
  • Choose Ripe Tomatoes: For the best flavor, use ripe, juicy tomatoes. Look for tomatoes that are deep red in color and free of blemishes.
  • Use Fresh Basil: Fresh basil is essential for this recipe. If you don't have fresh basil, you can use dried basil, but the flavor will be less intense.
  • Don't Overcook the Chicken: Chicken breasts can dry out quickly, so be careful not to overcook them. Cook the chicken until it is cooked through but still juicy, about 12-15 minutes.
  • Make Ahead: This dish can be made ahead of time and reheated when you're ready to serve. Simply cook the chicken and vegetables according to the recipe, then store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. When you're ready to serve, reheat the chicken and vegetables in a skillet over medium heat until warmed through.

Conclusion:

This Tomato Basil Chicken Spirals recipe is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The combination of juicy chicken, flavorful tomatoes, and fresh basil creates a dish that is both satisfying and refreshing.
