“A
spicy tomato sauce to enhance chicken legs. Sun-dried tomatoes,
balsamic
vinegar, lots of garlic, olives and anchovies add a new
dimension to this
classic peasant sauce. Add lots of pepper and
serve it with a hearty
Italian red wine!”
6

3
tablespoons olive oil
8
chicken legs (drumstick and thigh)

medium-size onion, cut into thin rings
12

Heat the oil in a large skillet. Add the chicken and brown on both
