-
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
-
2 pounds bone in chicken parts (breast, legs and thigh) breast halved crosswise
-
salt
-
black pepper
-
1 1/2 cups orzo pasta
-
1/4 cup fresh basil chopped
-
1 small onion finely chopped
-
1 8 ounce package mushrooms thickly sliced
-
1 14.5 ounce can diced tomatoes
-
1 8 ounce can tomato sauce
-
2 tablespoons capers drained
Recipe Method
1. In a
large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons
olive oil over medium-high heat.
Season the
chicken with
salt and
pepper and cook, turning once, until golden, 12 to14 minutes. Transfer to a
large skillet.
2. Meanwhile, in a large pot of boiling salted water, cook the orzo until al dente, about 5 minutes. Drain and transfer to a large bowl. Toss with the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, half the basil and salt and pepper to taste. Cook to keep warm.
3. Set the skillet over medium high heat; add the onion and mushroom and cook, scraping up any browned bits from the pan, until softened, about 8 minutes. Stir in the tomato sauce and their juice, the tomato sauce, capers and remaining basil; season with salt and pepper. Add the chicken to the sauce and bring to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce has thickened, 7 to 10 min. Transfer the chicken to 4 plates, top with the sauce and serve the orzo alongside.
