    Preparation Steps

    1

    Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken pieces and brown them on all sides. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

    2

    In the same skillet, sauté the onion, garlic, carrots, and celery until softened and fragrant, about 5-7 minutes.

    3

    Pour in the white wine and cook until the alcohol has evaporated, about 2-3 minutes.

    4

    Return the chicken to the skillet. Add the crushed tomatoes, chicken broth, rosemary sprigs, and bay leaves. Season with salt and pepper.

    5

    Cover the skillet, reduce heat to low, and simmer for 40-50 minutes, or until the chicken is tender and the flavors have melded.

    6

    Serve hot with fresh bread or pasta. Garnish with fresh rosemary sprigs.
