Chicken Amalfi

Ready In: 50 mins
Serves: 4
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 medium chicken legs, separated into thighs and drumsticks, skin removed (2.25 lb)
- 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
- 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
- 1⁄4 cup olive, pitted and coarsely chopped
- 3 medium plum tomatoes, diced
- 3 tablespoons capers, drained and chopped
- 1⁄2 cup chicken broth
- 1⁄2 teaspoon dried rosemary, crushed
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
Directions
- Heat oil in a 12-inch skillet over med.-high heat until very hot. Add chicken pieces and salt and cook until chicken is golden brown on all sides, transferring chicken to a plate as it browns. (I use a paper towel-lined plate to absorb the excess oil.).
- Add onion to skillet and cook until golden, stirring frequently.
- Stir in olives, tomatoes, capers, chicken broth, rosemary, lemon juice, and 1/3 cup water.
- Return chicken to skillet and bring to boiling over high heat. Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer for 25-30 minutes. Spoon olive mixture over chicken and stir occasionally while chicken is cooking. Chicken is done when juices run clear when pieces are pierces with a knife.
- To serve, arrange chicken on a platter, spoon olive mixture over chicken, and sprinkle with chopped parsley.
