Come preparare

1
Pat the chicken dry and season generously with salt and black pepper. Heat the olive oil in a wide, heavy 30 cm skillet over medium-high heat until it shimmers.
2
Place the chicken skin-side down and sear for 5 to 7 minutes, undisturbed, until the skin is deeply golden. Turn and sear the second side for 2 minutes, then transfer the chicken to a plate.

3
Reduce the heat to medium. Add the onion, bell pepper, and mushrooms to the skillet and sauté for 7 to 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables soften and the mushrooms begin to brown. Add the garlic and oregano and cook for 30 seconds, until fragrant.
4
Pour in the white wine and scrape up the browned bits from the pan. Simmer for 2 minutes, until the sharp alcohol aroma fades and the liquid is reduced by about half.
5
Stir in the crushed tomatoes and olives, then return the chicken skin-side up with any collected juices. Bring the sauce to a gentle simmer, cover, and cook for 30 to 35 minutes, until the chicken is tender and reaches 74°C/165°F at the thickest part.

6
Uncover and simmer for 3 to 5 minutes if needed to thicken the sauce. Taste and adjust the seasoning, scatter with parsley, and serve hot with the sauce spooned over the chicken.

Perché questa ricetta funziona

Searing builds a savory crust, while the tomato, wine, aromatics, peppers, and olives mellow together during a gentle simmer. Bone-in thighs stay succulent and enrich the sauce naturally.
