Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 3 1/2-pound chicken, cut into 6 pieces
1/2 cup all purpose flour
6 tablespoons olive oil
3/4 pound mushrooms, halved
2 green bell peppers, diced
1 onion, chopped
4 garlic cloves, chopped
1 teaspoon (generous) dried oregano
1 cup purchased marinara sauce
2/3 cup canned low-salt chicken broth
1/2 cup dry Marsala
3 tablespoons drained capers
Grated Parmesan cheese (optional)

Steps:

  • Season chicken with salt and pepper. Place flour in plastic bag. Add chicken pieces and toss to coat completely.
  • Heat 3 tablespoons olive oil in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken pieces to skillet and sauté until brown, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer chicken to plate. Pour fat from skillet. Add remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil to skillet. Add halved mushrooms, diced green bell peppers, chopped onion, chopped garlic and oregano and sauté until onion is tender, about 10 minutes. Mix in marinara sauce, chicken broth, Marsala and capers. Return chicken pieces to skillet, spooning sauce over. Bring sauce to boil. Reduce heat to medium-low. Cover skillet and simmer until chicken is tender, about 20 minutes.
  • Using tongs, transfer chicken to large platter. Boil sauce until slightly thickened, about 3 minutes; spoon off fat. Spoon sauce over chicken. Serve, passing Parmesan separately, if desired.

This is the worst chicken cacciatore recipe I've ever tried. The chicken was dry and tough, and the sauce was bland and tasteless. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

This recipe is a family favorite! It's easy to make and always turns out delicious. The chicken is always tender and the sauce is so flavorful. I usually serve it with pasta, but it would also be great with rice or mashed potatoes.

I've made this recipe several times and it's always a hit! The chicken is always tender and juicy, and the sauce is flavorful and rich. I usually serve it over pasta, but it would also be great with rice or mashed potatoes.

This recipe was easy to follow and the chicken was cooked perfectly. However, the sauce was a little too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using less sugar next time.

This recipe is a little bland for my taste. I added some extra garlic and oregano, and it was much better. I also served it with a side of roasted vegetables.

I love this recipe! It's so easy to make and always turns out delicious. I usually add a little bit of red pepper flakes for a little extra spice. My family loves it!

This recipe is a keeper! The chicken was so moist and flavorful, and the sauce was amazing. I used boneless, skinless chicken breasts, and they cooked perfectly in the time specified. I will definitely be making this again.
