Instructions

  1. Season chicken drumsticks with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Brown the drumsticks on all sides, about 8 minutes total. Remove and set aside.
  2. In the same pot, sauté diced onion and sliced bell peppers for 5 minutes. Add minced garlic and cook for 1 minute more.
  3. Pour in the dry white wine and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot. Let the wine reduce by half, about 2 minutes.
  4. Add canned tomatoes, kalamata olives, and capers. Return the browned chicken to the pot. Bring to a simmer, cover, and cook for 35 minutes until the chicken is tender and falling off the bone.
  5. Tear fresh basil leaves over the top before serving. Serve with crusty bread or polenta.
