Chicken Cacciatora with Egg Fusilli
Chicken Cacciatora, or "Pollo alla Cacciatora," is a classic Italian dish that translates to "hunterâs chicken," with its origins rooted in rustic, country-style cooking.Â
The sauce is typically made by simmering tender chicken pieces in a rich mixture of tomatoes, onions, garlic, and bell peppers, often enhanced with olives, capers, and a splash of red wine or vinegar. The dish was traditionally prepared by hunters using simple, readily available ingredients, making it a hearty, flavorful meal that reflects the Italian countryside. Chicken Cacciatora remains a beloved Italian comfort food, appreciated for its depth of flavor and rustic charm.

METHOD
- Bring a large saucepan of water to the boil. Salt the water (around ½tbsp per litre). The pasta won't absorb it all, but it's important the water is âas salty as the Mediterraneanâ for maximum flavour.
- Cook the pasta in the boiling water for 3-4 minutes. Stir regularly to prevent sticking.
- Whilst the pasta cooks, put the sauce in a pan and add 2tbsp (30ml) of the boiling pasta cooking water. Take care to ensure you squeeze all the sauce from the pouch. Gently heat until steaming and then turn off the heat.
- Lift the pasta out of the water and transfer to the sauce. Toss gently to coat.
- Sprinkle over the cheese. Serve immediately. Buon appetito!
