A classic Italian dish that I love making. The “caccia” in cacciatore means “hunt,” so I guess this is chicken hunter’s style. It’s been an Italian-American favorite for years and a dish with roots going back to the Renaissance. This dish is good made with a whole chicken, but I prefer it made with drum sticks and thighs only. It’s great with polenta or some pasta, but I love it with a chunk of crusty semolina bread. Join me in my kitchen as I make it here. #LidiasRecipes #LidiasItaly #LidiasKitchen #LidiaBastianich #ItalianFood #25YearsofLidia #FromLidiasTableToYours #lidiassoundtrack @AccademiadeiCento

Love ya! Wonderful Recipe 🫂🇮🇹🍷🍷
Don't be afraid to use your common sense!!! Oh how I wish that it was more common to have this common sense😅
with polenta, to dye for!!!
Lidia please remove your bracelets since they are rubbing on the chicken.
I was told to wash any meat prior to cooking it, because there might be small bits of bone fragments and metal shavings from the butcher in the meat market, using a band saw cutting meat. Also, think bacteria.
All of those above, are food Hazzards
Also, you're not wearing gloves, hairnet, apron and take off jewelry.
I was taught food safety in cooking class.
Looks delicious 🍴 🍷
One of my favorites! Yummo.
It must be mind over matter because I can SMELL that delicious chicken from my iPad!
Black olives. And garlic cloves, lightly crushed. That’s what I’d love in that stew.
So happy to see this video and get the recipe! Looks so easy and I LOVE to cook ❤
Once again I am inspired. I will be making this for Sunday dinner. Hubby doesn't like mushrooms so I will use green beans. Thank you!
Thanks for the nice recipe
Salut merci pour la recette et la traduction d’algerie ❤❤
I have made your recipe many times out of your cookbook
VERY DELICIOUS MOTO GRASSO
I think making it with a whole chicken is always good to use as my own mother used to make.but I take the skin off for this recipe
It's not very easy to eat the skin after cooking it. .
Could you make the crostini like a garlic cheese bread? A little garlic butter instead of oil instead and then the cheese? Or would you keep the oil and rub a little garlic over top?
Thank you for uploading this video clip looks delicious, brings memories back. My mom would make this for my birthday, so many years ago she passed years ago but I still make it. Thanks for the memories 🙏😊😋👍
Bello da vedere e squisito !!! Complimenti per la chiarissima spiegazione!!! Grazie ❤❤❤❤❤❤
My Dad’s favorite meal is chicken cacciatore over polenta. Whenever we’d go to my grandparents’ house in Astoria, Nana would always make this. When my parents got married, this was the first thing Nana taught my mom to make.
Nana and Mom have passed, but every year I make this for my Dad on his birthday. (And I cherish my mother’s copy of your cookbook – it’s falling apart, but no way am I getting another copy!)
My mom would use the same ingredients except she would add
Wedges of white potatoes and she used a huge black pan and she would bake hers in the oven after frying the chicken … it was a very delicious meal and now I appreciate all the good food she always made for us.. this brings back my childhood memories thank you 🙏🏼 I really miss her
I remember watching Lidia on public television back in the late 90s loved watching her shows. Learned about Al dente pasta from her. Glad she's still doing what she does best and on her own terms on YT. 🎉❤
