INGREDIENTS

  • Main Ingredients

    • 🐔 1 (3 pound) whole chicken, cut into pieces
  • Dry Ingredients

    • ½ cup all-purpose flour
  • Liquid Ingredients

    • ¼ cup peanut oil
    • ¼ cup sherry
    • 🍅 1 (14.5 ounce) can crushed tomatoes, drained
    • 🍅 1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce
  • Vegetables

    • 🧅 2 cups onions, cut into thin rings
    • ½ cup chopped green bell pepper
    • 🧄 2 cloves garlic, crushed
    • 🍄 1 (8 ounce) package sliced fresh mushrooms
  • Seasonings

    • 🧂 1 teaspoon salt
    • ¼ teaspoon dried oregano

STEPS

1

Rinse and pat the chicken pieces dry with paper towels, then coat with flour in a bowl or a resealable plastic zipper bag.

2

Heat the peanut oil in a large skillet over medium heat, and brown the chicken on all sides until golden brown, about 15 minutes. Remove the chicken, and set aside in a bowl.

3

Cook the onions, green bell pepper, and garlic in the oil left in the hot skillet until the onion slices are translucent, about 5 minutes.

4

Stir in mushrooms, and cook and stir until the mushrooms have given up their liquid and are almost tender, about 10 minutes.

5

Pour in crushed tomatoes, tomato sauce, salt, oregano, and sherry, and mix well; stir in the chicken pieces and any juices that have collected.

6

Simmer until the chicken meat is tender and no longer pink in the thickest part of a thigh, and the juices run clear, 30 to 40 minutes.

💡 Serve with rice or pasta and crusty garlic bread to complement the flavors.For a richer sauce, consider adding a splash more sherry or a tablespoon of butter during the simmering step.Swap peanut oil with olive oil for a slightly different flavor profile.
