SIMPLE CHICKEN MARENGO WITH MUSHROOMS
Chicken Marengo is a classic French dish named after the Battle of Marengo, a victory for Napoleon's French troops in 1800. This saucy one-pot dish is a tasty combination of chicken braised in tomatoes with white wine and just a few seasoning - simple, yet full of flavour. The authentic recipe is garnished with fried eggs and crayfish, but these are often omitted in modern recipes and substituted with mushrooms for a more affordable option. The Story behind the dish Legend has it, Chicken Marengo was a dish hurriedly invented...

Steps:
- Step 1 - Rinse the chicken thighs thoroughly and pat them dry all over with paper towel to remove any excess moisture; this will help ensure the skins gets a nice crispy skin when cooking. I like to allow the chicken to come close to room temperature before cooking.
- Season the chicken thighs with salt and pepper on both sides. Place the 1/3 cup of flour (42g) in a shallow plate and roll each chicken thigh in flour to cover evenly.
- Melt the butter in a large frying pan over medium heat. Add the flour covered chicken thighs and cook for 7-8 minutes on each side, until the skin is crisp and golden. Transfer the thighs to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm.
- Step 2 - Add the EVOO to the same frying pan, along with the diced onion, garlic and parsley. Cook for 2-3 minutes, still over medium heat and stirring occasionally with a wooden spoon, until the onion is translucent.
- Step 3 - Add the white wine and chicken stock to the pan and scrape off any bits at the bottom of the pan with the wooden spoon.
- Step 4 - Stir in the diced tomatoes with their juice. Turn the heat to medium-high and bring to a simmer. Nestle the chicken pieces into the sauce, and turn the heat to medium-low (for a slow simmer). Simmer for 30 minutes (lid-off).
- Step 5 - Stir in the mushrooms, and simmer for 10 more minutes or until the mushrooms are cooked through. Taste the sauce, and adjust seasoning if needed.
- Serve immediately over white rice or pasta.

This is one that I make on weeknights when I'm pressed for time. If you want, you can saute some fresh mushrooms in garlic and olive oil to add to the finished dish. This also works well with thick pork chops.

CHICKEN MARENGO
In the middle of June 1800, Napoleon Bonaparte's troops were engaged in battle with Austrian forces near the small village of Marengo in northern Italy. The battle was fierce, or so the legend has it, and Napoleon, of course, emerged victorious. And hungry. He asked his chef to prepare a meal quickly and the cook scoured the countryside looking for foods to prepare. He scurried around and discovered a chicken, olive oil, tomatoes, herbs, eggs and crawfish. Within minutes, a fire was started and the chef prepared a quick sauté of the chicken with tomatoes, oil and herbs. It is said that he garnished the dish before serving it with a fried egg and crawfish. In my version, the chicken, cut into serving pieces, is simply browned in a little olive oil (I add a touch of butter to give it flavor) on both sides. I then prefer to add sliced mushrooms (there are those who declare that truffles were among the original ingredients), seasonings, wine, tomatoes and parsley and cook covered until done, about 10 minutes longer.

Steps:
- Sprinkle the chicken with salt and pepper to taste.
- Heat the butter and oil in a heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken pieces skin-side down. Cook until golden brown on one side, about five minutes. Turn the pieces and cook on the other side about two minutes. Pour off the fat from the skillet.
- Scatter the mushrooms over the chicken. Stir to distribute. Add the onion, garlic, bay leaf and thyme and cook about 5 minutes.
- Add the wine and scrape the bottom of the skillet with a wooden spoon to dissolve the brown particles that cling to the bottom of the pan. Add the tomatoes, tomato paste, chicken broth and parsley. Bring to the boil. Cover and cook 10 minutes. Serve with rice and a tossed green salad.
