Ciociaria-style Chicken

  • 1 whole chicken, about 2 pounds
  • 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, peeled and crushed
  • ½ cup white wine
  • ¾ pound canned tomatoes
  • three yellow or red bell peppers, cut into large dice
  • ½ teaspoon crushed red pepper
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper

Wash the chicken and pat dry. Cut into pieces. Heat the olive oil in a heavy bottomed stew pot. Add the garlic and allow it to become slightly golden, without browning. Add the chicken pieces and let them become browned, adding the wine 2 tablespoons at a time and turning enough so that they evenly cook, about 5 minutes. When the wine has evaporated, add the tomatoes, peppers, and red pepper. Allow to simmer for 45 minutes, season with salt and pepper, and serve.

    In Italian, the word "gelato" means "frozen" more than it means "ice cream." So, for as much as we have heard that gelato is the Italian equivalent of ice cream, this "gelato" is really a frozen mousse
    In Italian, the word "gelato" means "frozen" more than it means "ice cream." So, for as much as we have heard that gelato is the Italian equivalent of ice cream, this "gelato" is really a frozen mousse of a dessert. Quick and easy, with no ice cream maker needed, this dessert may be served as a chilled mousse or frozen completely as a "gelato."

    Celebrate warm weather with nature's sweet berries. Simply served with a light dusting of powdered sugar, this dessert is not a sugar overload, because it relies on the natural sweetness of in-season berries.

    Here is smoky and slightly spicy twist on fried catfish. Instead of coating the catfish in a thick beer batter, I marinate the raw pieces in beer before seasoning them and lightly dredging them in flour
