Pollo alla Marinara. This is a very satisfying dinner to be served with Italian bread, salad and a good bottle of white table wine.

Ingredients
  • 7 tablespoons virgin olive oil
  • 4 garlic cloves, chopped
  • 3 shallots, peeled, chopped
  • 1 28-ounce can crushed tomatoes with added puree
  • 2 teaspoons dried oregano
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried crushed red pepper
  • 1/2 cup chopped fresh basil
  • 3/4 cup breadcrumbs
  • 3/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 cup all purpose flour

Directions
  1. Heat 4 tablespoons of olive oil in heavy large saucepan over medium heat. Add garlic and shallots and saute until tender, about 4 minutes.

Thank you, CFF, for this lovely recipe - I can already taste the smooth sauce, the juicy chicken *sigh+ - and it is early in the morning when writing this! i have e-mailed it to 'my significant other' in the hopes that we will be recreating this recipe this week-end. the wine certainly will not be a problem - there is always plenty good bottles in his wine cellar.
