Giambotta Recipe Giada Food

GIAMBOTTA

Steps:

• Heat skillet over medium heat.
• Add oil and coat pan.
• Add garlic and cook until soft, but not brown.
• Drain liquid from tomatoes and reserve.
• Add tomatoes and oregano to pan and cook 20-30 minutes over moderate heat, stirring occasionally.
• While tomatoes are cooking parboil potatoes and beans separately (I've nuked potatoes in the micro and obtained satisfactory results- it's quicker than boiling).
• Drain cooked (al dente preferably) beans and add them to the tomato mixture.
• Cut potatoes into 1 inch cubes and add to sauce.
• Cook for another 5-10 minutes (if the mixture needs more moisture or you just prefer this dish saucier you can add some of the reserved liquid at this stage).
• Salt and pepper to taste.

VEGETABLE STEW (GIAMBOTTA)

Steps:

• Preheat broiler.
• Heat a medium soup pot over medium heat. Add extra-virgin olive oil, bay, chopped garlic and onions and let them sweat out while you prepare the rest of the veggies. Work next to the stove and drop as you chop, in order of longest cooking time: potatoes, eggplant, zucchini, and bell pepper. Season with salt and pepper, cover and cook 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Uncover and add tomatoes and stock and cook 5 minutes more, to heat through. Turn heat off and stir in basil.
• Char bread under broiler and rub with cracked garlic then drizzle with extra-virgin olive oil, top with cheese and pepper and return to the broiler for 30 seconds to brown cheese. Serve cheese whole-grain toast with bowls of vegetable stew.

ITALIAN GIAMBOTTA

Steps:

• In a cast iron skillet, heat a small amount of olive oil. Add onions and saute until translucent. Add all the remaining vegetables, season with salt and pepper and bring to a simmer. Stir well and cover the pan. Let cook on a low flame for about 20 minutes, stirring often. Remove cover and continue to cook vegetables until tender and no cooking liquid remains in the skillet, about 15 minutes more. Adjust seasoning and serve hot, or cool down.

GIADA'S SAUSAGE, PEPPERS, AND ONIONS

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add the sausages and cook until brown on both sides, about 7 to 10 minutes. Remove from the pan and drain.
• Keeping the pan over medium heat, add the peppers, onions, salt, and pepper and cook until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Add the oregano, basil, and garlic and cook 2 more minutes.
• Add the tomato paste and stir. Add the Marsala wine, tomatoes, and chili flakes, if using. Stir to combine, scraping the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon to release all the browned bits. Bring to a simmer.
• Cut the sausages into 4 to 6 pieces each, about 1-inch cubes. Add the sausage back to the pan and stir to combine. Cook until the sauce has thickened, about 20 minutes.
• Serve in bowls. Or, if serving as a sandwich, split the rolls in half lengthwise. Hollow out the bread from the bottom side of each roll, being careful not to puncture the crust. Fill the bottom half of the roll with sausage mixture. Top and serve sandwiches immediately.

GIAMBOTTA

Steps:

• In a large casserole combine all the ingredients except the basil and the parlsey. Cover and cook over medium heat for about 30 minutes, stirring frequently. Remove and discard the bay leaves and cool. Stir in the basil and parsley. The giambotta can be stored covered in the refrigerator for up to one week and reheated before serving.

CHICKEN GIAMBOTTA RECIPE - (3.9/5)

Steps:

• Bake sausage in oven 500, until crisp and brown, then cut up in pieces. Saute chicken breasts in a bit of olive oil, covered with salt and pepper, add with smashed garlic cloves, until brown and crisp in pot. Remove when crispy. Garlic can get very brown, but remove with chicken so it doesn't burn totally. In same pot, with a bit more olive oil, saute peppers, and onions, then add wine, broth, a bit of the cherry pepper juice, hot red pepper flakes. Back into the pot, add sausage, a few cherry peppers, and chicken back into pot. Let simmer a bit. Meanwhile, I cut up potatoes with skin on, in chunks and bake in oven with some olive oil, salt and pepper until very crispy. Right before serving I put crisp potatoes in. Can be made ahead of time, and reheated.
