Pollo alla Cacciatora - Italian Hunter-Style Chicken, simple & aromatic
Pollo alla Cacciatora is an absolute classic of Italian country cooking that you simply must try! As a home cook with a weakness for Mediterranean flavors, I love this dish because it combines the wonderfully rustic taste of tender poultry with a fruity tomato sauce. My Pollo alla Cacciatora also features aromatic black olives and fragrant rosemary, adding that special touch. It is surprisingly simple to prepare and requires no complicated frills – perfect if you want to conjure a bit of 'la dolce vita' on your plate at home. By using fresh vegetables and high-quality ingredients, this dish becomes a healthy and hearty meal that is guaranteed to make you happy. Grab a pan and let's prepare this delicious, traditional Italian braised dish together. Meow, it already smells fantastic in my little kitchen!
Ingredients
Preparation
Season the chicken leg (1) with a little salt (1 pinch) and sear in a pan with olive oil (1 tbsp) until golden brown on all sides.
Meanwhile, finely dice the onion (1), chop the garlic (1), and cut the celery (1) into small slices.
Add the vegetables to the pan with the meat and sauté briefly until translucent – smells wonderful already, doesn't it?
Now add the tomatoes (200 g) and place the olives (30 g) as well as the rosemary sprig (1) into the sauce.
Cover and let everything braise over low heat for about 30 minutes until the meat is tender and the sauce has thickened nicely.
