Really, Really FAST Chicken Cacciatore

Really, Really, Fast Chicken Cacciatore

by Nanny Bubby

One day I had planned to make Chicken Cacciatore for dinner, which is a dish that can take a lot of time to make because you have to brown each piece of chicken. That afternoon I went to see a friend I hadn’t seen in 20 years and only expected to stay for an hour. What was I thinking? After three hours with my friend, I was in a panic about how I was going to make this dish for dinner in time. Well, necessity is the Mother of Invention. I ran to Whole Foods, bought two cooked chickens and had them quarter the chickens to save time. I was home in 20 minutes and threw everything into the pot hoping no one would notice a flavor difference. And guess what? No one did! It was remarkable. A complicated dinner made easy, and no one will ever know. Of course, if you want to start with browning the chicken first, you can. But this is a simple and tasty shortcut.

Total Time:

45 minutes

Serves:

5

Ingredients

  • 2 cooked organic chickens from your favorite store like Whole Foods or Costco
  • 3, 28 oz. cans chopped fire roasted tomatoes
  • 1 chopped red bell pepper
  • 1 chopped orange bell pepper
  • 1 chopped onion
  • 1 jar capers
  • 1 package white mushrooms caps quartered
  • 2 Tbsp. fresh oregano
  • 3 Tbsp. fresh basil
  • Red pepper flakes to taste
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Directions

  • Quarter the cooked chickens and place them in a non-metallic casserole pot.
  • Add all of the other ingredients and bring to a simmer covered for about 30-45 minutes. DONE!
  • Tip: If you are short cans of tomatoes, you can always substitute a jarred marinara sauce which makes the sauce a bit thicker. There are so many good ones out there.

Black Garlic Flatbread With Caramelized Onions And Goat Cheese

by Nanny Bubby

I had only seen black garlic in a specialty grocery store a few times. Because of it’s darkish nature I assumed that would mean it was spicier or had MORE of a potent garlic taste. I
t seemed scary so I stayed away from it.
Come to find out, black garlic is sweeter and has more of a molasses flavor when you first bite into it finishing with a strong citrus or slight vinegar taste. It doesn’t give you bad breath after eating and is delicious when eaten raw!!! WHO KNEW?????
It is my new favorite thing. When paired with more exotic recipes it opens up a whole new avenue for one’s palette! Enjoy!! Remember "Spread Love Like Butter"

Roasted French Breakfast Radishes

by Nanny Bubby

I love finding the unusual and turning into something that puts a smile on my face and those eating it.  Roasted radishes, who knew!!  The fact is they are absolutely delicious and such a treat in a way you could never imagine until you make them and enjoy them.  This is a great recipe to practice your intuition and your instincts and to rely on your nose and your eyes.  Enjoy!

Total Time:

30 minutes

Serves:

7

Ingredients

  • 2 bunches of French radishes
  • 2 Tbsp. olive oil
  • 1 tsp. kosher salt
  • ½ tsp. fresh ground black pepper

Directions

  • Pre heat oven to 375 degrees.
  • Wash the radishes and leaves and then trim the leaves to about ½ to 1 inch long.
  • Slice the radishes in half, length wise. Place the radishes in a pot with a steamer basket and steam till just tender.
  • Place on a sheet pan covered in parchment paper flat side up and then drizzle or brush olive oil on the top and sprinkle with the salt and pepper.
  • Let the radishes roast about 20 minutes. And……here is where your instincts and intuition come into play. Soon you will begin to smell the radishes roasting and then your eyes will tell you when they are caramelized to your liking. When you see that they are done. Enjoy!
