BEST TURKEY CACCIATORE RECIPE

Steps:

• Cut the thigh around the bone and remove the bone. If the thighs are too big you can cut them in two or even four, to make them easier to handle. After deboning and cutting them in half, season the thighs with sea salt and freshly ground pepper.
• Clean the onion and the garlic cloves and then chop them finely. Cut the peppers into cubes, and did the same with the tomatoes.
• Heat four tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil in a cast-iron pot. When the oil has heated up, put the turkey thighs to fry, which we have previously turned into wheat flour. Fry them for about a minute on each side on medium heat until they get a crust and a golden colour. Take them out on a plate or bowl and continue until all the pieces of meat are fried.
• Reduce the heat to medium to low and add the onion and chopped garlic to the oil left in the pot. Fry them lightly for half a minute, stirring with a wooden spoon, only until the onion softens a little. Add the green and red peppers cut into cubes and sauté everything for about a minute.
• Now you can add the diced or chopped tomatoes, sauté for another minute, stirring, then add the rest of the ingredients. Put the mushrooms, olives, bay leaves, tomato paste, season with a teaspoon of sea salt and dried oregano and then pour the beer over.
• Put the turkey legs back in the pot, if necessary you can pour a little water, put the lid on and let it simmer for one hour. Remove the lid to evaporate from the liquids and simmer for another 30-45 minutes.

CHICKEN CACCIATORE

Steps:

• Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a Dutch oven or similar deep, sturdy pot over medium-high. Season both sides of the chicken with salt and pepper.
• Once the oil is hot and shimmering (but not so hot it starts smoking), add the chicken in a single layer. Cook on the first side for 3 to 4 minutes, until browned, moving the chicken as little as possible so that it gets a nice sear. Flip and brown on the other side, about 2 additional minutes. Transfer the chicken to a large, clean plate. The chicken does not need to be cooked through.
• Reduce the heat to medium. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil, onion, and bell pepper. Cook until the vegetables begin to soften, about 4 minutes.
• Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute, or until the garlic is fragrant.
• Add the white wine. Stir and let simmer until the wine is reduced by approximately half, about 3 minutes.
• Add the tomatoes with their juices, mushrooms, Italian seasoning, and balsamic vinegar, stirring to combine. Bring to a simmer. Let the sauce simmer, uncovered, for 10 minutes.
• Nestle the chicken thighs into the tomato sauce, along with any drippings that have collected on the plate. The chicken should be mostly submerged, though some may peek through.
• Partially cover the pot and let simmer 15 to 20 additional minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through, the sauce is thickened, and the mushrooms are tender.
• If you'd like to dice or shred the chicken, remove it to a cutting board. When cool enough to handle, dice or shred it, then return it to the pot. You also can serve the chicken thighs whole.
• Taste and season the sauce with additional salt and pepper as desired. If you've chopped or shredded the chicken, return it to the sauce and toss to combine and warm through. Otherwise, serve the chicken pieces whole with a generous amount of sauce on top.
• Serve hot over pasta, rice, polenta, or veggie noodles, with a big extra spoonful of sauce and a sprinkle of parsley and Parmesan.
