Pollo alla Cacciatora

This was a really quick and easy recipe that can be easily made without to much stress of finding complicated ingredients. Just make sure you have the herbs as this gives it lots of flavor.

Ingredients

• 1 tbsp garlic flavoured oil (we used olive oil and added half a clove of chopped garlic)
• 110g pancetta cubes, or small pieces of bacon (we made one half without pancetta but it wasn't as flavorful)
• 6 spring onions, finely sliced
• 1 tsp finely chopped fresh rosemary leaves
• 500g chicken thigh fillets, each cut into 4 pieces - I would suggest using around 600-700g as there wasn;t much chicken
• 1/2 tsp celery salt ( I just used salt)
• 110ml white wine
• 1 (400g) can chopped tomatoes
• 2 bay leaves
• 1/2 tsp sugar
• 1 (400g) can cannellini beans

Instructions

1. Put the garlic oil into a pan with the pancetta, sliced spring onions and chopped rosemary and fry for a couple of minutes.
2. Add the bite-sized chicken pieces, stirring well and sprinkle in the celery salt. Pour in the wine and let it come to a bubble before adding the tomatoes, bay leaves and sugar. Put the lid on and let the pan simmer for 20 minutes.
3. Drain and rinse the cannellini beans, if using and add to the pan about 10 minutes before the end of cooking. When they have warmed through, you are ready to eat. A simple rice goes well with this recipe
