Time 1h15m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 (3 pound) whole chicken, cut into pieces
½ cup all-purpose flour
¼ cup peanut oil
2 cups onions, cut into thin rings
½ cup chopped green bell pepper
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1 (8 ounce) package sliced fresh mushrooms
1 (14.5 ounce) can crushed tomatoes, drained
1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce
1 teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon dried oregano
¼ cup sherry

Steps:

  • Rinse and pat the chicken pieces dry with paper towels, then coat with flour in a bowl or a resealable plastic zipper bag. Heat the peanut oil in a large skillet over medium heat, and brown the chicken on all sides until golden brown, about 15 minutes. Remove the chicken, and set aside in a bowl.
  • Cook the onions, green bell pepper, and garlic in the oil left in the hot skillet until the onion slices are translucent, about 5 minutes; stir in mushrooms, and cook and stir until the mushrooms have given up their liquid and are almost tender, about 10 more minutes. Pour in crushed tomatoes, tomato sauce, salt, oregano, and sherry, and mix well; stir in the chicken pieces and any juices that have collected.
  • Simmer until the chicken meat is tender and no longer pink in the thickest part of a thigh, and the juices run clear, 30 to 40 minutes.

I'm not a fan of mushrooms, so I omitted them from the recipe. The dish was still delicious.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I also like to add a bit of white wine to the sauce.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my sauce turned out really watery.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my chicken came out a bit tough. I think I might have overcooked it.
