Directions:
Directions:
1) Heat a large sauté pan over medium heat, and then add just enough olive oil to cover the bottom. Add the sausages and sauté, regulating the heat to reduce spattering. Turn regularly until they are browned on all sides. Remove and let rest.

2) Add the chicken pieces to the sauté pan and cook, turning occasionally, until the pieces are golden brown all over; about 15 minutes. Remove the chicken pieces from the pan and place in roasting pan, also slice sausage and scatter over chicken, and then cover them with aluminum foil.

3) To pan add the onions and garlic, and sauté until the onion has wilted. Raise the heat to high, and add the wine. Boil for about 2 minutes, stirring with a wooden spoon to loosen any bits of chicken and sausage that have caramelized on the bottom of the pan. Lower the heat to a simmer and add the pickling liquid, lemon juice, the cherry peppers, the oregano, and parsley. Taste for seasoning and add salt and pepper as necessary. Simmer for four or five minutes to concentrate the sauce, then pour liquid mixture over meat.

4) This can now be placed in a 350* oven for 30min, remove from oven place on platter, sprinkle with lemon zest then serve.

**This dish is just as good made ahead of time; prepare to this point let cool, cover and refrigerate overnight. When ready to re-heat place in cold oven turn on to 350-375and reheat about 30-40min till hot and bubbly. Taste juice if needed give a fresh squeeze of lemon prior to serving.
