Living in Vancouver, British Columbia, David and I did a lot of travelling 🚗 on the West Coast… from Seattle all the way down to San Diego, visiting friends and family. During these trips, as a foody, I was always looking for great restaurants to try and I found so many!
In Seattle, the list 📑 of incredible restaurants is quite extensive. There’s Purple Café, Metropolitan Grill, Maximilien, Palisade, Tulio, Assaggio Ristorante that is owned by our friend Mauro Golmarvi, The Capital Grille, Agua by El Gaucho, Petra Mediterranean Bistro, and it goes on.
While going to Seattle often as it’s less than 3 hours from home 🏡, we also ventured to Los Angeles and the surrounding area. We discovered many fantastic restaurants like BOA Steakhouse, Providence, Orange Hill, Meat on Ocean, The Little Door, etc.
One that we came across and were able to experience its food was Rao’s in Hollywood. Without knowing that it’s been an Italian icon restaurant of 10 tables in East Harlem – NY 🗽, we ordered a couple appetizers and our respective entrées. For dessert, David has his favorite – Tiramisu – while I had mine – Cannoli.
I’m not your typical diner who orders conservatively. Each time I go to a restaurant and if there’s something on the menu I’ve never had before 😮, you bet that’s what I’ll be ordering. Well, this is when I tried my first (and certainly not last) Chicken Scarpariello!
This amazing one-pot dish is loaded with deliciousness! With Italian sausage, chicken thighs, onions 🧅, bell peppers as well as “hot peppers” in a white wine reduction sauce, this is the perfect meal to make on weekends.
Chicken Scarpariello is a fabulous Italian-American recipe! As much as it sounds simple, the flavors blend together beautifully. Also, the combination of Italian sausage along with chicken thighs 🐓 might seem odd but they honestly complement each other nicely.
Mild Italian sausage is the way to go but if you like “heat” 🔥 then go for the hot ones. The casings are kept on and the links are slowly cooked on low heat. It’s important to start them in a cold pan before cooking on low temperature. It prevents the casings from bursting.
After quickly browning on all sides, the links are transferred to a cutting board to cool off before being cut 🔪 into 1 ½-inch pieces. Next is the chicken thighs which are also quickly browned. We just want to get a nice color on them. Both proteins won’t be fully cooked but keep in mind the skillet goes in the oven later.
Now, this is when my version differs from others. Either cherry peppers or peppadew peppers are used in this recipe – I opt for the pickled hot banana peppers. They’re slightly spicier than peppadews but milder than cherry peppers. It’s about availability and preference 💖 so choose what you want.
I have to mention it…
You might think it’s weird but I’m serious. This dish is 100% better the next day and the day after if there’s any left. The first time I made it, it was okay but when I reheated the leftovers, it was OMG 🤯! The flavors had time to mingle together and the taste was phenomenal.
Here’s some fun trivia…
Did you know that it’s likely impossible to get a table at Rao’s in New York City? There’s no online reservation 💻 let alone walk-ins. The only way to eat at this establishment is to either have a standing table, know someone who has one, or you’re an important public figure…
Served with crusty bread or over pasta, this Italian-American Chicken Scarpariello recipe is totally a must try! Cooked in an amazing tangy and slightly spicy, savory sauce, this sausage-chicken one-pot dish 🍲 is perfect to enjoy this season…
Bon Appétit!🍽
P.S. Besides Rao’s in Hollywood and New York, there’s another one that has recently opened in Miami. It’s located in the St. Moritz Tower at the Lowes Miami Beach Hotel 🕍.
