Description

Succulent British chicken thigh pieces in a simple tomato sauce seasoned with onion, basil, oregano, garlic and a splash of chicken stock served with long grain and wild rice .

Our Serving Suggestion It’s a meal in itself really, but you could always add a dressed green salad or a little crusty bread on the side. Serve with some strips of freshly chopped basil leaves

Our Drinks Pairing Since this dish with tomato sauce is acidic, it's best to pair it with a medium-bodied red wine. A wine that doesn't match the acidity of the sauce will make the wine taste bland. An example of the perfect red wine for a tomato-based sauce would be a cabernet sauvignon or Zinfandel.
