Chicken & Sausage Bake

20120918-231716.jpgWe’re not complicated people here. We like what we like and Pete cooks every day. We don’t have these overly complicated extravagant meals all the time. We’re really very content with simple dinners that are full of flavor. This chicken and sausage bake is definitely one of them. It’s easy and really cheap. Some sausage, some chicken, and everything else is pretty much a pantry staple. That’s the kind of meals we like too. I like the ones that use what we already have in our stockpile because that’s the point of it. I don’t buy it to collect dust. I buy it because it’s food we use on a regular basis.

Transfer the potatoes and sausage to a roasting pan. 20120918-231624.jpg Season the chicken on both sides with salt. Brown chicken on both sides, about 8 to 10 minutes. 20120918-231637.jpg Add the chicken to the roasting pan. 20120918-231649.jpg Put 3 tablespoons olive oil and garlic into skillet. Add in the onions and Italian seasoning. Deglaze with the white wine. When the white wine has reduced by half, add the chicken stock. Boil. 20120918-231703.jpg Pour all the contents of the skillet into the roasting pan. Add the bell peppers and sprinkle everything with salt. Drizzle with olive oil. Place in the oven, and roast 20 minutes. Add the peas. Stir and return to oven for 30 to 40 minutes (until the chicken is tender and caramelized and only a thin layer of liquid remains). Stir occasionally. [yumprint-recipe id=’72’]
