Totally yummy. I used Marsala Wine instead of Brandy (didn't have any) and bone-in thighs. Research on the Internet recommended the Marsala as a substitute. I have not made Chicken Cacciatore in YEARS but this recipe will change that. BTW I mixed together the liquid ingredients the day before and stored in the refrigerator. They really bonded!! Thanks.
Yummy stuff! The seasoning are a little different than from what I usually make and this is better. My usual recipe has oregano. A keeper thanks!
Thank you I've been looking for this recipe I have been looking for this since i saw Lydia do it like this but she added a little curry powder. So I do also...the flour also helps to thicken the sauce....
I fried the chicken skin on. I may should have removed the skin. Once the sauce was place in dutch oven with chicken the skin came off. The sauce after cooking was not red anymore. I have never even had this dish before so i am not sure what it was suppose to be but i will not be making this recipe again.
Was great the day we made it but the leftovers were um.. interesting to say the least.
This one is a winner! I grew up on tomato paste and was not a fan in my adult years but it works here and it works well! Leg quarters are cheap these days compared to beef so do yourself a favor and buy you some leq quarters. Also don't choose to leave the wine and brandy out because it plays a huge part in the end result. The "gravy" in this is rich and flavorful and one to die for. Thanks for the great recipe bonvivant!
This was very good. Made a few minor changes out of necessity. Did the entire dish in the same large skillet I used to brown the chicken and I used drumsticks. I had to add more chicken broth as it started to dry up and stick. Used Vermouth instead of white wine and served over garlic mashed potatoes. Everyone loved it! No leftovers!
It was fantastic. I didn't have to modify anything. Thank you!
I added a couple diced roma tomatoes. Used Marsala wine instead of brandy and maybe that was something I shouldn't have done. I didn't make any further changes but I guess I'm used to a tomato base cacciatore. The wine flavor through me off. I had to filter the fat off the sauce before thickening it. It was a great way to cook leg quarters and I give it another try but next time with brandy.
