Ingredients
  • 304.9 g chicken thigh
  • 0.8357 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
  • 75 g yellow onion
  • 2 clove garlic
  • 30 g carrot
  • 30 g celery
  • 60 ml dry white wine
  • 240 g crushed tomatoes
  • 120 ml chicken broth
  • 1 each bay leaf
  • 1 tsp fresh rosemary
  • 1 tsp fresh thyme
  • 0.25 tsp salt
  • 0.25 tsp black pepper
  • 141.3 g whole-wheat spaghetti
  • 1 tbsp Parmesan cheese
Method
  1. 01Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt and black pepper.
  2. 02Heat olive oil in a heavy skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add chicken thighs skin-side down and sear for 5-7 minutes until deep golden brown. Flip and sear for 2 minutes on the other side. Remove chicken and set aside on a plate.
  3. 03Reduce heat to medium. Add yellow onion, carrot, and celery to the skillet. Cook for 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and lightly golden.
  4. 04Stir in minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant. Deglaze the pan with white wine, scraping up browned bits, and simmer for 2 minutes until reduced by half.
  5. 05Add crushed tomatoes, chicken broth, bay leaf, rosemary, and thyme. Stir well and bring sauce to a simmer.
  6. 06Nestle chicken thighs back into the skillet. Cover, reduce heat to low, and simmer gently for 25 minutes, ensuring the chicken reaches a safe internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) with juices running clear.
  7. 07Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add whole-wheat spaghetti and boil according to package instructions until al dente. Drain well.
  8. 08Remove bay leaf from sauce. Serve spaghetti topped with the chicken thigh and cacciatore sauce, garnished with grated Parmesan cheese.
