This recipe started as a chicken cacciatore that I found here. By rebalancing the ingredients and adding the apple and turnip, I gave it a Polish twist.
Ingredients:
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 whole chicken
1 medium onion, sliced thickly
1 medium green pepper, sliced lengthwise
8 ounces fresh mushrooms
2 medium gala apples, cut into eights
1 large turnip, cut into wedges
6 san marzano tomatoes, cut in half
4 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 cup flour
1/2 cup red wine (not cooking wine, something good enough to drink)
1 cup chicken broth
1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste
1 teaspoon marjoram
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried thyme
black pepper
kosher salt
Directions:
1. 1. Spread olive oil in the bottom of the stoneware.
2. 2. Spread sliced onions and pepper strips across the bottom of stoneware.
3. 3. Butterfly the chicken and remove all visible fat; sprinkle with kosher salt and black pepper.
4. 4. Fit as many apple wedges as possible into the chicken, then tie closed with string.
5. 5. Place the chicken over the onions and peppers and surround it with the remaining apple wedges; turnip wedges and the tomato halves.
6. 6. Layer mushrooms and garlic over chicken.
7. 7. In a mixing bowl, combine and whisk, the chicken broth, wine, tomato paste, flour, marjoram, oregano and thyme.
8. 8. Spread the mixture evenly over the chicken.
9. 9. Cover and cook on high 6 hour setting.
