Spicy Sicilian Baked Chicken image

Generously given to me by an online friend (all I know is that her screen name is Succubus - you gotta love a woman with that screen name) that her great-grandmother from Sicily used to cook. As soon as I read it, I had to make it. It can also be made using rabbit. WARNING: the original recipe calls for an ENTIRE jar of hot cherry peppers. It's much too hot this way; only use as many as you think you can stand, because they are HOT!!! Enjoy.

Time 1h40m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/2 lbs chicken pieces (I use a mixture of legs, breasts, thighs, with skin on)
10 ounces sweet Italian sausage, cut into 2 inch chunks
white potato, cut into wedges (about six medium)
6 pickled hot cherry peppers (in vinegar)
olive oil
dried oregano
dried poultry seasoning
kosher salt
pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Place the chicken, sausage and potatoes in a 9x13 baking pan.
  • Scatter as many hot cherry peppers as you feel comfortable with (I love heat, so I put a lot!) in the pan.
  • To really get the flavor, drizzle a bit of the pepper/vinegar "juice" from the jar over the chicken, etc.
  • Drizzle the whole thing with olive oil, then season everything with salt, pepper and a bit of oregano.
  • Bake until chicken is cooked through - depending on size/type of chicken pieces, about 70-80 minutes.
  • Eat ravenously.

This recipe was a bit too spicy for me, but my husband loved it. He said it was the perfect amount of heat. The chicken was cooked well and the sauce was flavorful. I would definitely make this recipe again, but I would use less chili pepper flakes.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I had some roasted chicken that I needed to use up, and this recipe was the perfect solution. The chicken was reheated in the sauce and it was delicious. I served it with pasta and it was a quick

I'm not a big fan of spicy food, but I thought this recipe was really good. The chicken was juicy and flavorful, and the sauce was just the right amount of spicy. I served it with rice and steamed broccoli, and it was a great meal.

This recipe was easy to follow and the chicken turned out great. I used boneless, skinless chicken breasts and they were cooked through in about 20 minutes. The sauce was also very good, with a nice balance of heat and flavor.
