Here's a change from the same old, same old. The fennel gives this recipe a nicely different flavor. We served it over brown rice but pasta or potatoes would be equally good. We also used 8 small chicken thighs in place of the chicken pieces. Ingredients:
2 tablespoons olive oil |
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour |
3 lbs skinless chicken pieces |
1 onion, chopped |
2 cloves garlic, minced |
2 teaspoons dried oregano |
1 teaspoon fennel seed |
1/2 teaspoon hot pepper flakes |
1/2 cup dry red wine or 1/2 cup chicken stock |
1 (28 ounce) can diced tomatoes |
1/3 cup sun-dried tomato, cut into small pieces |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon pepper |
1/4 cup minced fresh parsley |
Directions:
1. Dredge chicken pieces in flour. 2. In large non-stick skillet, heat half of the oil over medium-high heat; brown chicken about 4 minutes on each side. 3. Transfer to plate, keep warm. 4. Drain fat from skillet. 5. Add remaining oil to pan; reduce heat to medium. 6. Add onion, garlic, oregano, fennel seed and hot pepper flakes; cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is softened, about 5 minutes. 7. Add wine, diced tomatoes, sun-dried tomatoes, salt and pepper; boil for 5 minutes. 8. Return chicken to pan; cook uncovered, basting chicken often, until juices run clear, about 20-25 minutes. 9. Sprinkle with parsley. |
