Time 4h45m

Ingredients

1 whole chicken (4 1/2 pounds), cut into 8 pieces with the backbone, plus 8 extra wings (1 1/2 pounds)
4 large sprigs parsley
2 large sprigs thyme
1 bay leaf
1 tablespoon kosher salt, plus more for seasoning
1/2 teaspoon black peppercorns, plus freshly ground black pepper for seasoning
1 small onion, diced (1 cup)
2 carrots, peeled and cut into 1/4-inch rounds (1 cup)
1 cup chopped fennel
One 14.5-ounce can whole peeled tomatoes
8 ounces cooked ditalini
1/4 cup chopped fresh basil
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
Red-pepper flakes and grated Parmesan, for serving

Steps:

Fill a large pot with 14 cups water, chicken pieces, backbone, wings, parsley, thyme, bay leaf, salt, and peppercorns. Bring to a boil. Skim foam, reduce heat, and gently simmer for 25 minutes. Remove chicken (except wings); continue simmering while you discard skin and remove meat from bones. Cover meat and refrigerate; return bones to pot and simmer 3 1/2 hours more.
Strain broth through a fine-mesh sieve and discard solids, including bones and wings. Skim fat and transfer broth to a clean pot. Add onions, carrots, fennel, and tomatoes. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer until vegetables are very tender, 25 minutes.
Cut or tear reserved chicken into 3 cups of bite-size pieces. (You'll end up with an extra cup of meat; save it for a salad or a sandwich.) Add to broth, along with ditalini, basil, and lemon juice. Heat through, about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, top with red-pepper flakes and Parmesan, and serve.

Time 50m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

4 chicken breasts, cut into bite size pieces
1 can Italian-style stewed tomatoes
1 chopped tomato
1/2 cup chopped green pepper
1 chopped onion
1/2 cup sliced mushrooms
1/2 cup chopped green onion
1 teaspoon oregano
1 teaspoon thyme
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper

Steps:

Cook chicken until done in a skillet using olive oil and a touch of butter for flavour over medium heat.
Add in tomatoes to deglaze the pan and then add in the rest of the ingredients.
Cook for 20 minutes on medium low temperature until vegetables are tender.
Serve over white rice or pasta.
I love to serve this with recipe #82356, Cheese and Jalapeno Foccacia Bread.

Tips:

To ensure the chicken is cooked evenly, use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature has reached 165°F (74°C).
If you don't have white wine on hand, you can substitute chicken broth or water. However, the white wine adds a delicious flavor to the dish, so it is recommended if you have it.
Feel free to adjust the amount of garlic and chili flakes to your taste. If you like a spicier dish, add more chili flakes. If you prefer a milder flavor, use less.
Serve the chicken and tomatoes over pasta, rice, or roasted vegetables. You can also serve it with a side salad or crusty bread.
This dish is also great for meal prep. Simply cook the chicken and tomatoes ahead of time and store them in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. When you're ready to eat, simply reheat the chicken and tomatoes and serve.

Conclusion:

This Italian Chicken and Tomatoes recipe is a quick and easy weeknight meal that is packed with flavor. The chicken is cooked in a flavorful sauce made with white wine, tomatoes, garlic, and chili flakes. The dish is then served over pasta, rice, or roasted vegetables. This recipe is sure to please everyone at the table.
