Stewed Chicken Cacciatore with Sweet Potatoes

Chicken Cacciatore, or Hunter's Chicken, is an Italian Chicken dish that often served as a tomato stew with chicken and vegetables. It's one of my favorites, and I've decided to add sweet potatoes into it, as opposed to serving with pasta. This is a very hearty meal that's great for a winter dinner

Step 1

Prepare your vegetables and potatoes. Dice your onions, peppers, and mushrooms. Wash the sweet potatoes, and cut them into pieces, about the same size as the peppers. Don't peel the potatoes. Make sure not to cut the potatoes too large, or they'll take too long to cook. Here's the size to shoot for

Step 2

Heat a large Dutch oven over medium high heat. Add in your mushrooms with a splash of water (no oil here). Cook for about 5 minutes, until the water in the pan is gone, and the mushrooms have shrunk and are starting to look cooked

Step 3

Add in your peppers and onion with oil a small pinch of salt to help draw out the water. Cook until the peppers soften and the onions are going translucent, about 10 minutes

Step 4

Meanwhile, cut your chicken into bite sized pieces. Add them to a large bowl, and mix with the oil and spices

Step 5

Stir in the raw chicken, potatoes, tomatoes, chicken stock (or water + powder), and thyme

Step 6

Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium, cover, and let simmer for 30 minutes, until the potatoes are fork tender and the chicken is 165F

Step 7

Divide among 5 containers, and garnish with a dried herb of your choice
