Ingredients:
2 large potatoes |
1 green bell pepper |
1 red bell pepper |
1 yellow bell pepper |
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts or the equivalent amount of alternative cut of boneless chicken, if desired |
2 tablespoons olive oil |
4 (3 to 4-ounce) italian sausage links |
4 ounces salted butter |
1 small can sliced jalapenos (sizes will vary) or approximately 1 fresh jalapeno, sliced |
1/4 teaspoon italian seasoning or 1/4 teaspoon combined dried basil and oregano |
freshly ground black pepper |
2 ounces all-purpose flour |
4 ounces dry cooking sherry |
1 to 2 (14-ounce) cans beef stock |
cooked egg noodles or fettuccine, as an accompaniment, optional |
Directions:
1. Wash and peel the potatoes, then quarter and slice the quarters into 1/4-inch sections, producing triangle shaped pieces. Wash and core the bell peppers, then cut them into 1 by 1-inch pieces. 2. Wash the chicken and pat dry. Cut the chicken into strips or leave the breast whole (add 5 minutes of cooking time to whole/large pieces of chicken). 3. Cut each sausage link on the bias into 4 pieces. In a nonstick 14-inch saute pan over medium-high heat add the olive oil and sausage, and brown the sausage, for about 5 minutes. Once the sausage is browned, add the chicken, and brown it on all sides, about 5 to 10 minutes. Once the chicken is browned, reduce the heat to medium and add the butter, all of the bell peppers, the jalapenos and potatoes. Sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon Italian seasoning and 3 turns of a peppermill, or a good pinch of black pepper. Saute on medium heat for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in the flour and cook it until the roux is light golden brown, about 1 minute. Reduce the heat to low. Carefully add the sherry, avoiding the open flame, to deglaze pan. Add 1 can of beef stock and stir to combine. Mixture will thicken, while simmering on low heat for 10 minutes; if you like thinner gravy add more beef stock until the desired thickness is formed. Season with more salt and pepper, to taste. Transfer the chicken pisano to a serving bowl and serve. This dish is delicious by itself or served over a bed of egg noodles or fettuccini. 4.
