Lidia, just love watching your relaxed way of cooking. I am 89 years old and you bring my Mom's Italian way of cooking to memory. Both she and my mother-in-law taught me so much. God bless you.
One of the first meals I made for my new husband and several of his GI friends. I honestly don’t why I knew how to make it but I watched you and by gum, I did it right…I learned to cut up a chicken when I was 8 years old…( out of necessity). We had a crusty bread and a good wine they brought….i cooked this in England 56 years ago…when finding all the ingredients wasn’t as easy as you might think. I prepared the tomato’s myself..not the same kind as I would in later years…when I canned my own. Thank you for making me feel so good about as you say..using common sense.
I always enjoy your show, Lidia. So did my blessed and beloved mother. Her family was from Sicily. They sailed from Naples to New York before she was born, obviously. She and her siblings were the first to be born, here. We lost her last year, she was 91. But your show helps me remember the fun I always had with her in the kitchen. She especially always loved it when your mother was on the show. God bless you both and thank you.😊
Yes! All this is True! It's The Only Cooking Show my Husband of Sicilian descent loves to watch with me. We repeat after Lidia... " JUST LIKE THAT" ❤❤❤
So sorry to hear about the loss of your mother! I lost mine when I was 13. You’re very lucky to have had her for so so long ❤. I loved her, she was so kind and loving.
I’ve tried to make homemade pasta and never got it right. I used your recipe…boom, perfect!!! My hubby likes store bought pasta. No accounting for taste, I love it!!!!
I hv watched you Lidia 40 yrs I have all your cookbooks you are such a delight to watch. You’ve been my world for so many years thank you for the wonderful memories. I met you in Becca’s w your Mom and had a nice conversation about me making raviolis w my grandson and daughter you were both beautiful! God bless you!
I had to laugh when i saw Lidia save the backs for soup. It so reminded me of my grandmother who made something she called "Social Security Soup." It was the meal she made when there was too much month left at the end of the money- hence the name. In those days her grocer got whole chickens with just their heads missing. His butcher would cut up the chickens and if the customer wanted the necks and backs he would put them in with the giblets. If not then they would be trashed. My grandmother and he had a little game. She would come in an say that she found a stray dog she was nursing to health and wanted to make it some chicken broth and the butcher would wrap up some necks and backs and give them to her for nothing. The dog ruse was so people would not think she was begging for food for herself. She woulld then buy carrots, celery, and an onion or two, and a small box of barley at a price in the 1950 that was less than $1.25 for everything. She would then boil the necks and backs and cut up and saute the vegetables. Everything would then go into a pot of boiling water seasoned with chicken boullion or broth and then the barley. Add to that a generous amount of black pepper and salt to taste and you have a hearty and cheap soup. With a loaf of buttered bread and a glass of wine it was heaven. I'm 74 , older than she was when she first made it for me. She never saw her grandkids. but they have all enjoyed that soup and now make it for their own families. And they don't have to beg the butcher to make it. We all can still afford chicken.
My recipe for chicken cacciatore came from my Sicilian mother-in-law. She baked it in the roasting pan with poatoes, celery, and peppers. Then the last 15 minutes you add the peas, mushrooms, and olives. The first part also includes the tomato sauce. And we added rice to serve at the table. There was always extra veggies for some reason, so we added pasta to it for another meal. Also, I say an Italian table is set with knife, fork, spoon and bread.
Such a simply delicious dish and the rustic bread with cheese really adds to it . Polenta underneath would give it an extra kick, or serve it Cuban style, over rice !
I have always thought I didn’t care for cooked peppers, but now, I’m trying them out. I see how good the cooked peppers look! I had a gastric bypass, and have difficulties eating much, but some foods are much easier to eat! I also have acid reflux, so I’m always looking for foods that don’t cause the burning. I love raw peppers too. The raw kale pesto looked very good too! I’m not fond of kale or cabbage cooked, but raw 😋.
Clear and on point . Thank you 😊 for sharing. Growing in Ethiopia, the chicken, goat, sheep and cow are bought and slaughtered in your backyard by the seller( I know, it’s not a good sight). The meat tasted AMAZING. I miss my mother cooking/ food. 😌

Oh this looks so delicious. Love this
Love these shows and when your mom appears in them. Your recipes and techniques are super!

YUMMIEEEE!!! It will taste better the next day.
Such a simply delicious dish and the rustic bread with cheese really adds to it . Polenta underneath would give it an extra kick, or serve it Cuban style, over rice !
It's a long time since I've made this dish and now, I will try it again very soon!
Fantasy food for me! I love it!
What a sweet mother

I loved this recipe.
Just perfect and not to expensive meal for a family to enjoy!
That looks delicious
Mmmm😋delicious👍
So good!
Clear and on point . Thank you 😊 for sharing.
Growing in Ethiopia, the chicken, goat, sheep and cow are bought and slaughtered in your backyard by the seller( I know, it’s not a good sight).
The meat tasted AMAZING. I miss my mother cooking/ food. 😌
Would you use Calabrian pepper flakes instead of pepperoncini?
Thank you for another delishious recipe. And I can’t wait to make the cheesey bread for my family.
Question please, do you marinated chichen and washing?? Or directly used?
Which way is the best,
No marinating the chicken for this. Of course, wash the Chicken and clean it up before cooking. Follow what Lydia does!
Thank you for this maam, I truely appreciate it. Your mother is a doll!
Love Grandma❤️🥰❤️🥰❤️🥰!
grazie Lidia bellissimmo piatto sempre buono l'acqualina in bocca !! ciao viva la e po bon !!!

Hi Lydia
Just watched your chicken cacciatore segment on utube.
I would love to make this dish for my family,however I have no experience with wines.
Could you recommend a good white wine
Love to hear from you
Lindy nolan
I am intrigued at the fact I saw no garlic go in this dish. Or did I miss it? Thank you!
Oh, it's beautiful 🎉
Watching from Saskatchewan 🇨🇦
I’ve made this dish before not using your recipe and it looks a lot easier than what I used I’m going to try this. Thank you for sharing.
Grandma was a Doll!❤
Delicious food 🙏❤️
What is your recipe for the punch? I am new to your Channel and I just loved this video ...
Hello Lidia from KC ! Looks delicious! 🥂
Maybe noodles or rice on the side or underneath it !
Lydia l forgot to tell you l wish I could cook like you you all are my inspiration 😊😊😊❤❤❤ from your friend and fan always Sharon Curry from Decatur Illinois 🙏🙏🌈🌈🌹🌹🌟🌟🙂🙂
Yummy from Atlanta Ga ❤
Mmmm!❤
Cooked Chicken Cacciatore, Pleasant Memories! MARINARA SAUCES
👏 ❤😊yummy 😋
I’m definitely going to do this 😁
Can you fry the chicken in olive oil?
Lydia said a higher frying temp is better; o.o. will burn.
Are the mushrooms your idea or is it an Italian thing because I don’t ever remember my mom or grandma putting mushrooms in the cacciatore?
Stupendo piatto, una delizia per il palato, bravissimaaaaaa❤
Thank you for sharing this recipe.
What to use in place of wine?
I put potatoes in mine. I don't know, I like it that way, but this looks wonderful!
Question: Why did you not season the vegetables while roasting them? There must be a reason
Don’t add salt because it will release the water from the vegetables, if you want to roast them
My mom and i love your recipes lidia.
That looks just delicious!!!
È fantastica signora😊
Lydia how old were you when you started cooking? I was 9years old.l really enjoy watching your family videos and cooking videos on UA-cam channel God bless you all l hope you all get the gold you tube button because you all deserve Lydia may I call you my friend. from Sharon Curry from Decatur Illinois l wish I could meet you all in person God bless you all 😊😊😊❤❤❤l miss your grandma or mom 😊😊😊❤❤
No seasoning of the chicken before frying?
None of us like bell pepper…can we leave them out? And wouldn’t adding a bay leaf give it an extra wonderful flavor?
This type of dish is like chicken Afritada as called in our country only we don’t put mushrooms instead we put potatoes and carrots the bell peppers are there too
What brand of knives do you use?
I love wine , usually Chianti and Pinot Grigio but I can’t find a Good rose wine
Any suggestions 🙏🙏🙏
Awesome recipe thanks Lisa👍❤️👍❤️👍
❤❤Yummy
