Follow The Directions

01

Step
2 mins

In a large bowl, combine the flour with a generous pinch of salt and pepper. (2 minutes)

02

Step
3 mins

Add the chicken pieces and toss until they are evenly coated in the seasoned flour. (3 minutes)

03

Step
1 mins

Heat a generous drizzle of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. (1 minute)

04

Step
5 mins

Add the chicken to the skillet and cook for about 4-5 minutes, turning occasionally, until all sides are beautifully browned. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside. (5 minutes)

05

Step
7 mins

In the same skillet, add a bit more olive oil if needed, then sauté the chopped bell pepper, onion, and minced garlic until the onion is soft and translucent, about 5-7 minutes. (7 minutes)

06

Step
7 mins

Pour in the dry white wine and chicken broth. Bring to a simmer and allow the liquid to reduce by half, concentrating the flavors, about 5-7 minutes. (7 minutes)

07

Step
2 mins

Stir in the tomato sauce and add the browned chicken pieces back into the skillet. (2 minutes)

08

Step
7 mins

Simmer for 5-7 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened slightly and the chicken is heated through. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to taste. (7 minutes)

09

Step
3 mins

Divide the cooked brown rice into four deep bowls and generously top with the Chicken Cacciatore. Serve immediately and enjoy! (3 minutes)

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of dried oregano and basil to the sauce while it simmers.
If you don't have white wine on hand, you can substitute with additional chicken broth or a tablespoon of red wine vinegar for a touch of acidity.
Feel free to use other types of rice, such as jasmine or basmati, if you prefer.
Garnish with fresh parsley or basil for a vibrant finishing touch.

    I was a bit skeptical about using jarred sauce, but this turned out fantastic. I used a high-quality sauce, as suggested, and it made all the difference.

    I made this last night and it was a huge hit. The only thing I changed was adding some mushrooms, which worked perfectly.
