- Heat the olive oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the chicken, and cook for 5 minutes, browning chicken on all sides. Remove chicken from pan. Add chopped garlic, and saute for 2 minutes or until lightly browned. Stir in the wine, scraping pan to loosen browned bits. Add tomato and next 6 ingredients (tomato through pepper); stir well. Return chicken to pan. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 45 minutes or until chicken is tender.
