As a little girl, I called this “Kitchen Cacciatore”and it was a family favorite. Traditionally, this dish is served with a pasta, spaghetti, fettuccine or linguini. My Mom always paired it with corn and boiled parsley and buttered potatoes. I put the yummy sauce over everything!!! This is an easy dish to put together and you probably have all the ingredients on hand. BONUS!! It’s a fun dish to take to neighbors recovering from surgery because it’s different. Your home will smell divine as it cooks so be prepared for all family members to gather around the table and ready to eat ASAP.
