Time 2h5m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 18

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 pound skinless, boneless chicken thighs
3 onions, sliced
8 ounces baby bella (crimini) mushrooms, sliced
2 tablespoons cooking sherry
2 zucchini, cut into chunks
2 red bell peppers, sliced
1 large yellow squash, cut into chunks
4 cloves garlic, sliced
3 sprigs fresh rosemary, leaves stripped
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 pinch red pepper flakes, or to taste
3 cups tomato sauce, or more to taste
¼ cup chicken stock, or more as desired
salt and ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Heat olive oil in a large Dutch oven or heavy pot over medium-high heat; cook chicken in hot oil until browned, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer chicken and accumulated juices to a bowl.
  • Mix onions and mushrooms together in the same large Dutch oven; add sherry. Cook and stir until onions and mushrooms are soft, 5 to 6 minutes. Add zucchini, red bell peppers, yellow squash, garlic, rosemary, Italian seasoning, oregano, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon black pepper, and red pepper flakes; cook and stir until heated through, 3 to 4 minutes. Mix tomato sauce and chicken stock into vegetable mixture.
  • Arrange chicken on top of vegetable mixture; pour in any accumulated juices left in the bowl. Season with salt and black pepper. Cover Dutch oven.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink in the center, about 1 hour 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
