Chicken Marengo
Chicken Marengo is a delicious dish that originated in France. It is typically made with chicken cooked in a tomato and wine-based sauce, often with garlic, onions, mushrooms, and herbs such as thyme and bay leaves. It is often served with rice or crusty bread.
Ingredients
- 2 pounds chicken (bone-in or boneless, your choice)
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 onion diced
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 8 ounces mushrooms sliced
- 1 can diced tomatoes (14 ounces)
- 1/2 cup dry white wine
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 2 bay leaves
- Salt and pepper to taste
- fresh parsley chopped for garnish
Instructions
- Season the chicken pieces with salt and pepper, then coat them in flour, shaking off any excess.
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook until browned on all sides. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set it aside.
- In the same skillet, add the diced onion and minced garlic. Sauté until the onion becomes translucent and the garlic is fragrant.
- Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and cook until they begin to soften.
- Pour in the diced tomatoes with their juices, followed by the white wine. Stir well to combine.
- Return the chicken to the skillet and add the dried thyme and bay leaves. Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and let it cook for about 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and tender.
- Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper if needed.
- Once done, remove the bay leaves and garnish with chopped fresh parsley.
- Serve the Chicken Marengo hot with rice or crusty bread.
