Cooking Meat Chicken cacciatore

Browning the chicken first seals in the juices. Dont be afraid if the bottom of your dish browns as this will add to the flavour of the sauce.

  2. Heat remaining oil in dish. Add mushrooms, onion and garlic. Cook, stirring, for 5 minutes until vegetables have softened. Return chicken to dish with wine. Bring to the boil. Boil for 1 minute or until wine has almost evaporated. Add tomatoes and vinegar. Reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer, covered, for 25 minutes.
  3. Stir in olives and basil. Season with salt and pepper. Serve with fettuccine and chopped basil.
