Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

6 ounces cremini mushrooms
3 garlic cloves
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 1/4 pounds skinless boneless chicken thighs, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 small onion, chopped
3/4 teaspoon chopped rosemary
3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1 (28-ounce) can whole tomatoes in juice
1/2 pound dried pappardelle
5 ounces baby arugula (about 8 cups)
Accompaniment: Grated Parmigiano-Reggiano

Steps:

  • Pulse mushrooms and garlic in a food processor until finely chopped.

  • Add mushroom mixture, rosemary, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper and cook, stirring constantly, until beginning to brown, about 4 minutes.
  • Add vinegar and cook until evaporated. Add chicken and tomatoes (with juice), then simmer, breaking up tomatoes with a spoon and stirring occasionally, until sauce is just thickened, about 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, cook pappardelle in a pasta pot of boiling salted water (2 tablespoons salt for 6 quarts water) until al dente.
  • Add arugula to sauce and stir until wilted. Stir in drained pasta and cook 1 minute.

CHICKEN AND MUSHROOM RAGU

Categories     Chicken

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 chicken legs
1 cup celery, onion and carrot finely chopped
2 cloves garlic
2 bay leaves
2 cups red wine
2 cups plum tomato, chopped
2 cups mushrooms, sliced
1 cup chicken broth
Salt and pepper to taste
Olive oil
Butter
1 lb pappardelle or other broad egg noodle of your choice

Steps:

  • In a braising pot, add some oil and preheat. Season the chicken legs with salt and pepper, then place them in the pot and sear until brown on both sides. Remove some of the oil from the pot and add the chopped vegetables, garlic and bay leaves. Sweat until translucent. Add the red wine and let evaporate well to remove the alcohol. Add tomatoes and broth, then simmer for about 1 hour at very gentle heat or in the oven at 375F degrees. Let the chicken cool completely. Remove any fat and de-bone carefully. Chop the meat and return to the sauce. In a skillet with some oil saute the mushrooms until soft and add them to the chicken ragu, then simmer for a few minutes. Boil some water, add salt and pappardelle. When cooked, drain the pasta and add it to the ragu. Simmer to thicken the sauce. To make the sauce thicken, add a generous grating of cheese.
