PREPARATION:
Italian Style Chicken:
- Place the chicken in a large bowl and lightly coat with salt, pepper, and cayenne.
- Heat the oil in a roasting pan or sauté pan large enough to hold the chicken in 1 layer, over 2 burners over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and sear on both sides. Add the garlic, onion and crushed red pepper and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the remaining ingredients, stirring well to evenly distribute. Reduce the heat to medium low, cover the pan tightly and continue to cook for another 40 minutes.
- Transfer the chicken to a platter and sprinkle with the parsley. Spoon the pan juices over the chicken, or serve on the side.
Spaghetti Bordelaise:
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the spaghetti and cook until al dente, about 10 minutes. Drain in a colander.
- Meanwhile, in a medium pot, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the butter, olive oil, garlic and green onions and cook, stirring, until fragrant and starting to turn golden, about 2 minutes. Add the wine, basil, oregano, thyme, salt, and pepper, and cook for 2 minutes. Add the butter and parsley and cook for 2 minutes.
- Return the drained spaghetti to the pot. Add the sauce, to taste, and toss well to coat. Place in a large serving bowl and coat with the Parmesan.
