Chicken, me?
Well, not about doing this week's Resolution Recipe, anyway.
Chicken with Tomatoes, Shallots, and White Wine
2 lbs frying chicken, in pieces
1 T olive oil
1/2 cup chopped shallots or red onion
3 ripe red tomatoes, sliced
1/2 cup vermouth (I used white wine - I don't like vermouth, in martinis or out)
1 T fresh oregano, chopped
salt & pepper to taste
Heat large cast iron pan, add oil, and saute chicken until brown. Remove to a platter and add shallots. Saute for 3 minutes, add tomatoes and wine, cook until tomatoes are soft and tender. Return chicken to the pan; add oregano and salt and pepper. Cover and simmer about 20 minutes.
Comments: nothing too difficult or extra-special. Reasonably tasty. Worth doing again, as it was a different method of chicken preparation than I usually do. Little effort, even if it wasn't a quick recipe.

I've done something kind of similar with boneless, skinless chicken cut into small pieces. Dust with black pepper, saute in hot oil until slightly browned, remove, saute garlic and/or shallots, add chicken back in, deglaze wth sherry, add tomatoes and simmer for a few minutes until the chicken is tender. It won't have as much flavor without the skin & bones, but it cooks a lot faster. Fresh oregano - nice touch!
