Chicken Scarpariello With Heat

This is really a great recipe that is very simple to make. It's packed with flavor and you can control the amount of heat that you want by altering the hot cherry peppers. We like it medium.  We also like this dish with dark meat boneless thigh meat but you surely can use boneless chicken breasts.

2 lbs of boneless skinless chicken thighs - cut in 2-3 inch pieces
Salt & Pepper
1 tsp poultry seasoning
2 Tbsp EVOO
2 chicken sausages (I used roasted garlic and gruyere cheese ones) slice up
2 red peppers cut into 1 inch pieces
Hot chopped cherry peppers in jar (1 Tbsp) add more if you like it more spicy
4 Garlic cloves sliced very thin
1/2 cup white wine
1/2 cup chicken stock
2 Tbsp parsley

Heat a deep pan with EVOO
Season chicken pieces with salt, pepper and poultry seasoning
Add to the hot pan
Don't turn chicken for a few minutes
Let it brown really well then turn over do the same
Remove the chicken once browned well on both sides
Add sausages and browned well then remove
Add your peppers and garlic sauté well
Add wine and reduce it for about 1 minute
Scrape up pan drippings
Add the chicken stock and let it boil up
Add the chicken and sausages back to pan with peppers
Sprinkle parsley on top and cook chicken completely through.

Serve over fresh spinach or even pasta!

Delicious:)
