CHICKEN STEW WITH PUTTANESCA SAUCE

Serves:


INGREDIENTS :

1/3 cup Unico Premium Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 4 lb. chicken cut into 8 serving pieces washed and diced
salt to taste
4 Unico Flat Fillets, Anchovies, chopped
1 clove garlic
2 cups Unico Whole Tomatoes with their juice, put through a food mill to remove the seeds
Chopped fresh red chili pepper or dried red pepper flakes to taste
8 UNICO Medium Pitted Olives thinly sliced
2 Tbsp. Unico Capers / rinsed

PREPARATION: Heat the oil in a large skillet. When the oil is hot, add the chicken pieces without crowding them. Cook until the chicken is golden on both sides 5 – 6 minutes. Transfer to a large platter. Discard ½ the oil in the skillet. Add the anchovies and garlic and stir quickly (don't burn the garlic). Add the tomatoes and bring to a gentle boil. Season with salt and chili pepper. Return chicken to the skillet. Reduce the heat to low and cover the pan partially. Simmer 30 – 40 minutes, turning the chicken occasionally. Add the olives and capers and simmer 5 – 10 minutes longer. If the sauce is a bit thin, transfer the chicken pieces to a large platter, raise the heat under the pan and boil the sauce down to a thicker consistency. Taste and adjust the seasoning and serving.
