KITTENCAL'S CHICKEN CACCIATORE



Kittencal's Chicken Cacciatore image

Coating in flour then browning firstly will insure your chicken will be moist and tender and also add extra flavor to this dish, you will need a large skillet for this or you may use a pot, I use my wide 5-quart chicken fryer skillet --- if you are not an olive-lover you may omit, they really do add flavor to this dish, but do not use black olives --- adjust the chili flakes to suit heat level, using good-quality canned Italian diced tomatoes will only improve the flavor of this dish also for the best flavor I would strongly suggest to use only skin-on bone-in chicken for this --- made as stated this make a delicious restaurant-quality dish paired with cooked pasta and sprinkled with freshly grated Parmesan cheese on top.

Time 1h30m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 19

8 bone-in chicken thighs (can reduce if desired)
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon garlic powder
6 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 lb fresh mushrooms, sliced (or use a 10-ounce can sliced mushrooms, drained)
1 medium onion, chopped
1 medium green bell pepper, seeded and chopped
2 tablespoons fresh minced garlic
1/4-1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried basil
3 tablespoons tomato paste (1/2 small can)
1 (28 ounce) can diced tomatoes, undrained
3/4 cup chicken broth
1/3 cup dry white wine
1/3-1/2 cup sliced green olives (you may omit if desired, I suggest to add them in)
1 teaspoon seasoning salt (or use white salt, or to taste)
fresh ground black pepper
1 large bay leaf (to taste)

Steps:

  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat (I have listed 6 tablespoons oil, use enough oil to cover the bottom of your skillet).
  • In a shallow bowl mix the flour with garlic powder, then coat each piece of chicken lightly in the flour mixture (shaking off any excess).
  • Cook the chicken in oil over medium-high heat on both sides until just lightly browned (about 4 minutes per side) then remove to a plate and set aside.
  • Add in mushrooms, onions and green bell pepper; cook stirring for about 3-4 minutes or until just softened scraping any browned bits that have accumulated on the bottom of the skillet.
  • Add in fresh garlic, chili flakes, oregano and basil; cook stirring for 2 minutes.
  • Add in tomato paste; cook stirring constantly for 2 minutes.
  • Add in diced tomatoes with juice, chicken broth and wine, olives, seasoned salt and bay leaf; bring to a boil.
  • Reduce heat to low and simmer covered for about 15 minutes stirring occasionally (just to blend the flavors).
  • Return the browned chicken back to the skillet (carefully turn the chicken to coat with the sauce).
  • Reduce heat to low and simmer covered for about 1-1/4 hours, stirring occasionally and turning the chicken pieces a few times during cooking.
  • Season sauce with more salt if desired and black pepper about halfway through cooking.
  • Serve with cooked pasta.

KITTENCAL'S MARINARA PASTA SAUCE (VEGETARIAN)



Kittencal's Marinara Pasta Sauce (Vegetarian) image

This is a basic simple marinara but big on flavor, it can be ready in 1 hour or you can cook it longer and even tastes better the next day that is why I strongly suggest to make this sauce 1-3 days ahead and refrigerate as the flavors will blend and intensify ---this freezes well so make a double recipe and freeze a batch for the next meal, you may omit the wine but I strongly suggest to add it in, it really adds flavor to the sauce --- please make certain to purchase only good-quality canned Italian Roma (plum) tomatoes for this it will make a huge difference to the flavor of the sauce --- all ingredients may be adjusted to suit taste, this sauce can also be simmered for a longer time in a crockpot, throw in some fresh mushrooms also if desired --- also see my recipe#71273

Time 1h15m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 -4 tablespoons olive oil (I use enough oil to lightly coat the bottom of my pot)
1 large onion, chopped
4 -6 garlic cloves, minced (or to taste, the more the better I use 6 extra large cloves)
1 tablespoon dried basil (rubbed between fingers to release flavor)
2 teaspoons dried oregano (rubbed between fingers to release flavor)
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional or adjust to taste)
1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste (can use two cans for a thicker richer sauce if desired)
1 (28 ounce) can whole roma tomatoes, undrained (break up with a fork before cooking, go ahead and use two cans if desired!)
1/3-1/2 cup dry red wine (you may omit if desired but good to add in, can use white wine)
2 teaspoons sugar (optional or to taste)
1 teaspoon salt (or to taste, a good tomato sauce needs lots so don't be shy with the salt)
fresh ground black pepper (to taste)

Steps:

  • In a heavy-bottomed stockpot or Dutch oven heat oil over medium-high heat.
  • Add in onions, garlic and dried red pepper flakes, basil and oregano; saute for about 3-4 minutes.
  • Add in the tomato paste and stir for 2-3 minutes.
  • Add in the Roma tomatoes with juice and wine; simmer uncovered over low heat for 1-2 hours (I usually cook it for at least a couple of hours) stirring occasionally.
  • Season with salt and pepper and add in sugar if desired.
  • **NOTE** if you prefer a thinner sauce, then add in some water.

KITTENCAL'S WHITE CAKE



Kittencal's White Cake image

7-Up or Sprite is the secret ingredient that takes this cake to another level, do not allow the soda to go flat pour right from the bottle or can --- this cake bakes out beautiful with no dark over cooked edges --- I recommend to use diet soda regular is too sweet but regular will work fine also ---this also may be baked in two 8-inch round cake pans and it makes the perfect wedding cake!
