One for the cook

I grew up with this recipe. It was one of my mom’s staple Sunday dishes. It’s absolutely delicious, moist and full of flavor. And it is just ridiculously easy to prepare. YOU GOT TO TRY IT!

Ingredients:

Whole chicken cut into pieces (or 6 chicken drumsticks and thighs)

1 cup of white whine

½ tsp paprika

½ tsp garlic powder

½ tsp onion powder

½ tsp curry powder

½ tsp dry thyme

½ tsp oregano powder

Salt & pepper

Preparation:

Pat dry chicken and cover with spices. Leave the chicken for few hours or better yet over night.

Heat up canola oil in a big sauté pan and brown chicken on both sides.

Add wine and turn the heat up and let the alcohol evaporate for few minutes

Cover the chicken and turn down the heat to low. Let the chicken braise for 40 min or so

Sauté onion, shallot, garlic cloves and a pinch of pepper flakes.

Goes great with:

Butter Lettuce with French dressing

Roasted cauliflower

French fires
