ITALIAN BRAISED CHICKEN WITH TOMATOES AND OLIVES



Italian Braised Chicken with Tomatoes and Olives image

This is my favorite Italian Braised Chicken recipe. The chicken thighs are first seared until the skin is crispy then they're gently simmered in a delicious tomato and olive sauce. The chicken becomes super flavorful and tender. This is a healthy dinner recipe you don't want to miss.

Categories     Dinner

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 teaspoons olive oil
8 chicken thighs (skin on or off, your choice)
Salt and pepper (for seasoning the chicken)
1 medium onion (finely minced)
4 cloves garlic (chopped)
4 tablespoons tomato paste
28 ounce can diced tomatoes
1 cup coarsely chopped olives
2 tablespoons each: capers and balsamic vinegar
1 teaspoon each: chopped rosemary and oregano
A pinch of red pepper flakes
Optional: 1 teaspoon honey (omit for Whole30)
Salt and pepper (to taste)

Steps:

  • Set your oven to 400 degrees.
  • Heat the oil in a large, ovenproof pan over medium-high heat. Add the chicken thighs to the pan, skin side up. Season the chicken skin with a pinch of salt and a little pepper on each piece. Once some of the fat has been released into the pan, flip the chicken over and cook until the skin is brown and crispy, about 7-8 minutes. If using skinless thighs, cook them until the meat starts to brown. Remove the chicken from the pan. (While the chicken is cooking, prep the rest of the ingredients.)
  • Pour out all but a few teaspoons of the oil. Add the onion to the pan and let it cook until soft, about 3-4 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute more. Add the tomato paste to the pan and let it cook until it has darkened slightly and is fragrant smelling, about 3 minutes.
  • Add all the remaining ingredients to the pan and stir well. Season to taste with sea salt and black pepper. Nestle the chicken back into the pan, skin side up. Pop the chicken into the oven and let it cook for 40 minutes. Remove the chicken from the oven and serve it right away.

BRAISED CHICKEN THIGHS WITH BELL PEPPERS, OLIVES AND TOMATOES



Braised Chicken Thighs With Bell Peppers, Olives and Tomatoes image

This used what I have on hand, it has been tweaked a bit from the original recipe in Martha Stewart Living, March 2004. Although this uses 10 cloves of garlic, crushed whole garlic isn't as strong as chopped or minced garlic. Supposedly the tomatoes in canned whole tomatoes are of better quality than those used for canned crushed tomatoes, but sometimes every minute counts. You may use fresh tomatoes, but you may want to add more salt to suit your taste preference. Serve over pasta or rice. (Served over whole wheat pasta.)

Time 1h

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 1/2 lbs boneless skinless chicken thighs
kosher salt, to taste
fresh ground black pepper, to taste
2 yellow bell peppers, seeds and ribs removed, thinly sliced lengthwise julienne-style
2 red bell peppers, seeds and ribs removed, thinly sliced lengthwise julienne-style
1 medium onion, thinly sliced (about 3/4 cup)
10 garlic cloves, crushed with the flat side of a knife blade
28 ounces canned whole tomatoes or 28 ounces crushed tomatoes
1/4 cup Spanish olives, pitted and quartered
1 dried bay leaf
1 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 cup water
salt, to taste
black pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • In a Dutch oven (5-quart pot with a tight-fitting lid), warm oil over medium heat.
  • Season chicken with salt and pepper, and cook until browned, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate.
  • Add bell peppers, onion, and garlic to pot; cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
  • If using whole tomatoes, gently crush tomatoes with your hands; add them to the pot along with their juice. If using canned crushed tomatoes, empty can into pot.
