Williams Sonoma Braising Sauce, Calabrian Chicken

Summary

FLAVOR PROFILE

• San Marzano tomatoes, Calabrian chiles, Parmesan cheese, roasted garlic

WHY WE LOVE IT

• Rich, spicy flavors are common in Southern Italian kitchens, where local chile peppers provide vibrant inspiration for homemade braises. A fresh take on tradition, our slow-simmered sauce begins with a savory blend of San Marzano tomatoes, Calabrian chiles and dry white wine, balanced by Parmesan cheese and roasted garlic. Prep is simple – just combine the time-saving sauce with seared chicken, then finish the dish in the oven or slow cooker.
• A Williams Sonoma exclusive.
