Easy Skillet-Braised Chicken with white wine, fennel, and pancetta
Skipped a few other recipes to choose a nice hearty meal for Father’s Day - but I might just have to skip most of the soup chapter for now as the weather has been creeping up to 90 degrees and 1000% humidity.
I used Italian sausage (mixture of sweet and hot) because my local grocery store did not have any pancetta in sight. As the name of the recipe led on, this was a super easy meal to make - and extremely delicious. I’ve been bringing leftovers to work this week and fall in love all over again each day. This was my first time cooking with fennel and now I think it’s going to be a new grocery shopping item favorite.
I also made a cucumber/sweet pepper/tomato summer salad with red wine vinegar along with ricotta cheesecake (which collapsed terribly, but the ricotta cheese was made from the previous chapter’s recipe), strawberry shortcake, and chocolate cake.
