Denise Phillips: Recipes (Chicken Cacciatore with tomato basil sauce)

Cacciatore means ‘hunter’ in Italian and in cooking terms it refers to a recipe that includes tomatoes, onions, herbs, peppers and often wine. It is the ideal mid-week meal that can be prepared in advance and reheated when ready. The Italians like to serve it with a plate of pasta on the side or with rustic bread to scoop up the sauce.
