Directions: |
Directions:Cook pasta according to package directions. Do not overcook. Drain and set aside. Salt and pepper both sides of the chicken. Heat olive oil and butter in a heavy skillet or dutch oven over medium-high heat. Place chicken, skin down in a pan, four pieces at a
time. Brown chicken on both sides, then remove to a clean plate. Repeat with remaining chicken. Pour off half the fat in the pan and discard. Add sliced onions and peppers, as well as the garlic. Stir around for 1 minute. Add mushrooms and stir around for 1 minute. Add thyme, turmeric, and salt. (Adding crushed pepper flakes makes it spicy) Add extra black pepper to taste. Stir, then pour in wine. Allow to bubble. Pour in canned tomatoes and stir to combine. Add chicken to pan, skin side up, without totally submerging the chicken. Place lid on the pot and continue cooking for 45 minutes in 350º oven. Remove lid and increase heat to 375º. Cook for an additional 15 minutes. Remove pan from heat. Remove chicken from pot and place on a plate. Remove vegetables from pot and place them on a plate. Return pot to burner and turn heat to medium high. Cook and reduce sauce for a couple of minutes.
Place noodles on a large platter. Add vegetables on the top, then place chicken pieces on top of the vegetables. Spoon juices from the pot over the chicken and pasta. Before serving, sprinkle on chopped parsley and grated Parmesan. |
