CHICKEN LEGS IN TOMATO SAUCE


Today i prepared chicken legs in tomato sauce.
for 2 persons;
I fried 1/2 onion, 1 pc. garlic and some chili.
After a few minutes added 2 tbl. spoons of red wine and cooked until evaporated.
Then added 1/2 liter tomato passata plus a tbl. spoon of origano, 1 bay leaf, some rosemary and a little salt. Bring to boil and add chicken legs (4 to 6). Simmer for at least 45 minutes, until the sauce is not watery anymore, but dense.
I served with rice, garnished with 1 tomato and we drank a glas of good cabernet wine from our Veneto region.
