3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
1 ½ teaspoons salt, divided
4 mild Italian sausages, cut into ½ inch pieces
1 onion, diced
4 garlic cloves, minced
2 red bell peppers, diced
2 cups diced cremini mushrooms
1 cup chicken stock
1 cup Peppadews, cut in half
½ cup Peppadew brine
2 cups baby red potatoes, quartered
½ teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 F.
Heat oil in Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
Add chicken and ½ teaspoon of the salt. Sear chicken until browned, working in batches if necessary, approximately 2 minutes per side. Place chicken in a bowl.
Add sausage and sear until brown on both sides, approximately 1 minute per side. Remove sausage and add to chicken.
Reduce heat to medium. Add onion, garlic, bell peppers, and mushrooms. Saute for 2 minutes.
Return chicken and sausage to Dutch oven. Add chicken stock, Peppadews, brine, and potatoes.
Add remaining 1 teaspoon of salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning. Stir and cover.
Cook in oven for 30 minutes or until potatoes are done and serve. Garnish with parsley, if using.
