Monday February 15

Tonight i am creating my own version of Chicken catchatori. I started with 6 chicken leg quarters dredged them in some flour seasoned with basil, oregano, salt and pepper, and a little chili powder. I browned off the chicken in some unsalted butter and olive oil, and removed it from the pan. I sliced half of a medium onion and sauteed that until it started to turn translucent. I then added 3 red bell peppers from our freezer (thawed), brought that to a boil and added 1 can of diced tomatoes, 3 cloves chopped garlic,Tbs each of oregano and basil, a bit of S+P and a few chili flakes. I returned to a boil, Added the chicken back in and now it is simmering away while I type this. I will serve it with some whole wheat pasta and call it dinner.

Here's hoping it turns out...

  1. Well that dish turned out vary nicely, for never making a cachatori,or even reading a recipe, before. I do think that next time i will use a tomato sauce instead, or in addition to, the diced tomatos. It is alos a good candidate for skinless breasts, but for sure keeping the bones in the recipe.
