RECIPE OF THE WEEK!
Braised Chicken with Artichokes, Peppers and Sausage
Ingredient Checklist
- 4 tablespoons olive oil, divided
- 1 fully-cooked Italian chicken sausage link (about 3 ounces total), thinly sliced
- 4 bone-in chicken breast halves (about 3 pounds), skin removed and patted dry
- 1/4 teaspoon fine salt, plus more to taste
- 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus more to taste
- 1 medium red bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 1 medium yellow onion (8 ounces), halved and thinly sliced
- 2 cloves garlic, sliced
- 1 (12-ounce) package frozen artichoke hearts (no need to defrost)
- 1/2 cup dry white wine, such as pinot grigio
- 1/4 cup sliced jarred hot cherry peppers, or to taste
- 1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
- 1 large sprig fresh rosemary
- 1 teaspoon white wine vinegar
- Chopped parsley, for garnish, optional
Instructions Checklist
- In a large, deep skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat, heat 1 tablespoon of the oil until shimmering. Add the sausage and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a large plate.
- Season the chicken with 1/4 teaspoon of the salt and 1/8 teaspoon of the pepper. Add 2 more tablespoons of olive oil to the pan, then add 2 pieces of the chicken and brown them on both sides, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer the chicken to the plate with the sausage and repeat with the remaining chicken.
- Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil to the pan, then add the red bell pepper and onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are translucent and beginning to brown, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until aromatic, about 30 seconds. Add the artichokes, wine and hot peppers and bring to a boil. Cook until the wine is reduced by about half, 2 minutes.
- Return the chicken and sausage to the pan, along with any accumulated juices, nestling the chicken into the vegetables. Add the broth and rosemary, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover and simmer until the chicken is cooked through and registers 165 degrees on an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the breast without touching the bone, about 25 minutes.
- Using a large slotted spoon, transfer the chicken and vegetables to a large bowl, and cover to keep warm.
- Bring the liquid to a boil over high heat and continue to boil, uncovered, until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes, then stir in the vinegar. Season with additional salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve the chicken and vegetables drizzled with the sauce and garnished with parsley, if using. (You can serve the extra sauce on the side, if you like.)
