Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 8 Chicken Thighs
  • 1 red onion cut into wedges
  • 1 red capsicum seeded, coarsely chopped
  • 1 yellow capsicum seeded, coarsely chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves crushed
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped oregano
  • 1/2 cup dry white wine
  • 400 g can cherry tomatoes
  • 1 cup reduced salt chicken stock
  • 1/2 cup Sicilian olives

Instructions

  • Heat the oil in a large frying pan or flameproof casserole pan over medium-high heat. Cook combined chicken, in 2 batches, turning occasionally, for 5 mins or until golden brown. Transfer to a plate.
  • Add onion and combined capsicum to pan. Cook, stirring, for 5 mins or until onion softens. Add the garlic, anchovy and oregano and cook, stirring, for 1 min or until aromatic. Return chicken to pan and pour over wine. Bring to the boil.
  • Transfer the chicken mixture to a slow cooker. Add the tomato, stock and olives. Cover and cook for 3 hours on high (or 6 hours on low) or until chicken is almost falling off the bone and sauce thickens slightly. Season.
