Add Step-by-Step Photos	Misslizzi / All my dishes 1 year, 9 months ago I recently found this recipe in the Minneapolis Star Tribune. I made it yesterday, almost to the letter, and it was quite delicious. Though it wasn't perfect, it has a lot of potential! I will post my current and planned alterations below.

Ingredients

12 skinless chicken thighs

6 chicken drumsticks, skinned

1/2c. flour seasoned with salt, pepper, garlic salt

1 tbsp. butter

2 tbsp. olive oil, or more as needed

1 red onion, cut into thick slices

4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced

4 bell peppers (mix of green and red), seeded and cut into chunks

16 oz. mushrooms, quartered

1 (28-oz.) can crushed tomatoes

1 (15-oz.) can diced Italian tomatoes

1 (15-oz.) jar tomato sauce

1/2c. Marsala wine

1 tsp. sugar

1/4c. sliced basil leaves, or to taste

1 tbsp. fresh oregano leaves, or to taste

Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Dredge the chicken pieces in the seasoned flour. In a large skillet set over medium heat, melt the butter with the oil and sauté the chicken pieces in batches until nicely browned, adding more oil if necessary, about 5 minutes per side. The chicken should be crispy but not overcooked. Place the chicken in a roasting pan as you finish sautéing the pieces.

Once the chicken is sautéed and removed, add the onion and garlic to the same pan and sauté until translucent, about 1 minute, then add the peppers and cover the pan so they wilt, about 1 to 2 minutes. Layer these over the chicken in the roasting pan. Add the mushrooms to the skillet and sauté, stirring until just browned, about 2 minutes. Add to the chicken.

Pour the crushed tomatoes, diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, Marsala, sugar, basil, oregano and salt and pepper to the sauté pan. Stir to scrape up any of the browned bits on the bottom. Simmer over low heat for about 30 minutes (adding a little water if necessary). Ladle this sauce over the chicken. Cover the pan with aluminum foil, place in oven and bake for 1 to 11/2 hours. Serve over cooked pasta.

Yesterday, I used 4 bone-in chicken breasts instead of thighs, and the breasts didn't dry out. Yum!

Yesterday, I also supplemented the fresh oregano and basil with dried oregano and basil as well. I also supplemented the tomato sauce with extra garlic.

In the future, I will sautee the onions, peppers and mushrooms together to allow the flavors to blend a little better.

In the future, I will add more garlic and maybe some parsley to the tomato sauce and cook it even longer.
