This dish starts out like Chicken Vesuvio, but as you can see takes a different path.
INGREDIENTS:
1 whole Fryer Chicken cut up 1 each Red, Yellow and Green Bell Pepper sliced about 6 Garlic cloves (smashed) 1 Onion sliced up about 2 Cups or more of Tomato (sauce, puree or stewed/whole Tomatoes mashed up) about 2 Cups of Olive Oil Salt and Pepper Some Black Olives sliced. (I used pitted Kalamata Olives, but canned ones work too) About 6-8 oz. Pasta
If using stewed/whole Tomatoes, mash them up with a Potato masher. Then separate the sauce from the mashed up Tomatoes and set both aside.
In a large saute pan, put the Olive Oil and Chicken in, sprinkling with Salt and Pepper. Begin to fry. You just want both of the sides to get browned a bit as the rest of the cooking process will take place in the oven. When turning the Chicken over, sprinkle the other side with Salt and Pepper again.
I used a Turkey Roasting pan, but a large cake pan will work as well. Put 1/2 of the Tomato sauce on bottom, then top with Chicken.
Now comes the fun and easy part!! With the remaining Olive Oil put the Peppers, Onions and Garlic. Again, you just want to saute it for a few min, not long.
