Ingredients
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 3 whole Roma Tomatoes, Seeded And Quartered
- 1 whole Orange Bell Pepper, Cut Into A Medium Dice
- 1 whole Red Bell Pepper, Cut Into A Medium Dice
- 1 cup Yellow Onion, Cut Into A Medium Dice
- 2 sprigs Fresh Oregano
- ½ cups Extra-virgin Olive Oil, Divided
- 1 teaspoon Cayenne Pepper
- 1 pinch Coarse Salt And Freshly Ground Pepper
- ½ cups All-purpose Flour
- 2 whole Chicken Breasts, Cut In Half
- 2 Tablespoons Capers
Preparation
Heat the broiler to high, and position the rack 6 inches below it.
Combine the garlic cloves and the teaspoon of salt in a mortar and pestle and smash it to make a paste. Set aside.
On a rimmed baking sheet, place the tomatoes on one end, cut side down. Place the peppers, onions and oregano on the other side. Drizzle everything with 3 Tablespoons of oil and sprinkle with the cayenne, a pinch of salt and pepper.
Broil for 7 minutes. Flip the tomatoes, toss the peppers and broil 5 more minutes.
Using tongs, remove the skins from the tomatoes. Move the veggies to a cutting board and give them a rough chop. Put the peppers and onions in a bowl and add the garlic paste. Then toss in the tomatoes and combine. Set aside.
Pour the flour in a shallow dish. Season the chicken on both sides with salt and pepper, then dredge through the flour.
Heat the remaining oil in a medium skillet over medium-high. Cook the chicken breasts until seared and cooked through, 6 minutes per side. Remove from pan.
Lastly, add the capers to the skillet and cook maybe 2 minutes, until they start to dance in the pan and crisp up.
Serve chicken with ragout and top with capers.
You’re gonna flip your lid.
