BRAISED CHICKEN WITH PUMPKIN, SAGE, & WALNUTS
Delicious winter dish. Pretty easy to make, yet is definitely a dish you can serve to company. The braising adds moistness and flavor. You can tweak this one quite a bit to suit your taste (add wine to the stock, more pepper, a mix of winter root vegetables instead of pumpkin, different nuts or spices, etc). Adapted from a recipe by Michael Lomonaco, chef of the former "Windows on the World" which was in one of the NYC World Trade Center towers.

Steps:
- Generously sprinkle chicken on both sides with salt and pepper.
- Over medium heat, melt olive oil and butter in a large pan that you can fit all chicken pieces in without crowding.
- (Note: pan must have a lid) Add chicken, skin side down, and cook slowly until chicken is golden brown color.
- Turn pieces over, add onions, carrots, and pumpkin and cook until chicken is golden brown.
- Once the chicken is browned, let it and the vegetables cook slowly together for 5 to 7 minutes.
- Add about 1 3/4 c of hot stock and simmer over low heat for 30-35 minutes, slightly uncovered, checking occasionally to add more stock, if needed.
- Transfer chicken pieces to a large serving platter.
- Add walnuts and sage to the pot and cook for two minutes.
- Spoon vegetables onto the serving platter around the chicken, and pour the remaining sauce in the pot over the chicken.
- Sprinkle reserved sage and walnuts over the dish to garnish.
