Italian pollo alla cacciatora/cacciatore: hunter's chicken! We are going to make a delicious Italian stew with chicken. For this we travel to beautiful Tuscany. Tuscany is actually a region in Italy that has it all: beautiful beaches, old medieval towns, mountains, rolling landscapes filled with vineyards, you name it! It is not without reason that this region is known for its Burgundian cuisine. A hunter's stew of chicken.
Italian pollo alla cacciatora
This Tuscan hunter's chicken is therefore a true classic. It is a wonderfully simple one-pot dish, in which the chicken is stewed in red wine and tomato sauce together with carrot, celery onion and herbs. The smell alone makes your mouth water!
Chicken meat is known for its tender texture and short cooking time, making it an excellent choice for a quick stew. This particular stew does not require the meat to simmer for hours; You can have a delicious dish on the table within just an hour. You retain flexibility in cooking methods, because you can choose to braise the dish in the oven or, for a smoky taste, even on the barbecue.
This offers a welcome change from traditional cooking methods and can add an extra dimension to the already rich flavors of the stew. This way you can easily create an unforgettable meal for friends and family in a short time.
Here you will find the complete recipe with all the ingredients you need. I hope you have fun preparing the dish below.
