Chicken, Hunter Style!

A day before payday, I had myself cook some wonderful dish again. Take note, I haven't tried doing this dish ever. I was watching the latest season for Masterchef US when one of its amateur cooks cooked something that caught my eye. I loved the color and the whole look of the dish. So I researched it and combined all the different recipes I found online and made my own version.

Chicken Cacciatore

1/2 pound chicken (choice cuts)
2 tbsp olive oil
1 cup spring onion (thinly sliced)
2 cloves garlic (thinly sliced)
1/3 cup white wine
2 cans tomato (peeled and chopped)
1 tbsp rosemary
1 tbsp thyme
5 bay leaves

I'm such a sucker for Italian dishes. I started making pasta dishes before and they turned out quite to be a best-seller for my friends. It's my first time to use wine in my dish so I really didnt' know how the taste is supposed to be. With the sourness of the peeled tomatoes and the lovely alcohol-ish taste of the wine, I really didn't know how the dish is supposed to taste. Good heavens, my tastebuds are one-of-a-kind. The dish was such a winner. It was the first time I saw my mom say "masarap!" with her eyebrows lifted along with a big smile! Haha!!

Now, here's a cheap image of my Chicken Cacciatore which I took before I ate it. Nyahaha!!

Much Love
