Recipe Summary Chicago's Chicken Vesuvio
This Chicago original is a one-pan dish that starts on the stove and finishes in the oven. It's made with browned chicken-on-the-bone pieces, baked with garlic, onion, and yukon gold potato wedges sopped in white wine. Garnish with a lovely pan sauce and peas (or baby lima beans yummm!). Once an economic meal named for Mt. Vesuvio near Naples, it has turned into a signature Chicago dish that you'll absolutely love.Ingredients | Chicago Pizza Puff Calories2 pounds bone-in, skin-on chicken piecessalt and freshly ground black pepper to taste¼ cup olive oil2 cups Yukon Gold potato wedges½ onion, chopped5 cloves garlic, sliced⅔ cup dry white wine⅔ cup chicken stock2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley1 tablespoon Italian seasoning1 tablespoon butter, or more as needed½ cup frozen peasDirectionsPreheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Dry chicken pieces well and season liberally with salt and pepper.Warm olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium heat and add chicken, skin-side down.

Roast until chicken is cooked through and no longer pink at the bone, about 45 minutes.
