Ingredients
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- 1 kg chicken thigh fillets, cut into 3 cm pieces
- 1 large red onion, diced
- 2 rosemary sprigs, plus extra, to serve
- 3 garlic cloves, bruised
- 6 anchovies in oil, finely chopped
- 125 ml (½ cup) dry white wine
- 400 g can chopped tomatoes
- 2 bay leaves
- 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
- steamed greens and steamed rice or mashed potato (optional), to serve
Instructions
Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat, and cook chicken for 4 minutes or until browned on all sides. Remove chicken from pan and set aside.
Reduce heat to medium and add onion, rosemary and garlic to pan. Cook for 5 minutes or until they start to colour, adding a little more oil if necessary to help them cook. Add anchovies and cook, stirring constantly, for a further minute. Add wine, increase heat to high and bring to the boil for 1 minute.
Return chicken to pan with tomatoes, bay leaves and vinegar, bring to the boil and cook for 2 minutes. Reduce heat to medium, add 250 ml (1 cup) water and season with salt and pepper. Cover and cook for 50 minutes or until chicken is tender.
Scatter over extra rosemary and serve chicken with rice and greens, if desired.
