This Chicken Osso Buco is rich, comforting and over the top full of flavor! Perfect for those busy weeknights, but fabulous for company too!
Has dinner gotten boring lately? Need something to spice up your regular routine?
Well get ready folks, because today I’m sharing my chicken spin on the classic Italian dish Osso Buco.
I have to say if there’s one dinner that you absolutely NEED to try it’s this one. It’s far from your boring old weeknight dinner. It’s a zesty dish, that will have you hoping for leftovers. I guarantee it.
Chicken thighs are economical and always turn out moist and tender.
I think what I love most about this dish is the tasty sauce. Add a side of pasta and just smother it with the extra sauce and you’ve got a winner, winner chicken dinner.
If you’ve never tried Osso Buco, it’s an Italian dish traditionally made with veal shanks. It’s braised with onions, carrots, celery, tomatoes, wine and broth.
My mom made the classic veal shank version often when I was growing up, so I’ve been a fan of this dish since I was a kid.
Unfortunately, I can’t always get veal shanks at my local market and I’m a huge fan of chicken thighs, so I’ve substituted chicken thighs and it’s an absolute winner folks. I like to serve this dish over pasta, mashed potatoes or polenta with some nice crusty bread for dipping.
