ingredients
- 3 lbs chicken, cut into serving pieces
- salt & freshly ground black pepper
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1⁄2 lb mushroom, halved (or quartered, if large)
- 1 bay leaf
- 1⁄4 teaspoon dried thyme
- 3⁄4 cup onion, finely chopped
- 1 1⁄2 teaspoons garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons flour
- 1⁄2 cup dry white wine
- 1 cup crushed tomatoes
- 3⁄4 cup chicken broth
- 6 anchovy fillets, chopped
- 24 green olives, pitted and drained
directions
- Season the chicken with salt and pepper. Heat a large skillet over medium high heat. Add oil and cook chicken 3 to 5 minutes, until golden brown. Turn and cook other side about 3 minutes, until golden brown. Add the mushrooms and continue cooking. Add bay leaf, thyme, onion, and garlic. Cook, shaking and stirring the skillet so everything cooks evenly. After chicken is done (about 10 to 12 minutes), remove chicken and set aside.
- Sprinkle flour into pan and stir to blend. Add wine, tomatoes, and broth. Stir and bring to a boil.
- Return chicken and any juices that accumulate. Add anchovies, salt and pepper to taste. Cover and simmer 5 minutes. Add olives and cook another 5 minutes.

Delicious! Instead of using only 1 cup crushed tomatoes as called for, and so that I would not have any leftover, I used the whole 14 1/2 ounce can in the recipe. Although my family turned up their nose at the thought of anchovies, I doubt they would have known if my daughter had not seen the recipe! (Ultimately, they were not invited for dinner!) Anyway, more for me ~ :) ~ Tagged for Bay, Herb/Spice for February 2010, in the French Forum. Served with rice and steamed broccoli.Reply
