Boneless chicken cacciatore recipe – Chicken Cacciatore & Family Sunday Dinner.
“Family life is a bit like a runny peach pie — not perfect but who’s complaining?” ~ Robert Brault ~
Good morning, dear friends!
Let’s go reading Boneless chicken cacciatore recipe
Lately I have been feeling bit melancholy …. especially when it comes to Sundays ….
I grew up in Eastern Europe with very close knit family …. every Sunday we gathered at grandma’s house for big Sunday lunch & family afternoon.
My husband is Canadian Italian so he grew up with even bigger family that used to gather at his Nona’s house not only on Sunday.

As I am getting older & my boys are growing up I am feeling certain sadness that they will probably never know or experience Sunday tradition of large family gathering at grandma’s house.
My parents are away most of the year & we lost my mother-in-law to cancer before my children were born.
My husband’s large Italian family grew apart after Nona died & my family is in Europe.
Yes, it makes me sad ….. family is everything to me …. , but living in the past is not a good thing so I decided to bring some Sunday family togetherness to our home.
Over last few years my best friend’s family became our family so I started Sunday Night Family Dinner & we try to get together whenever we can.

It’s not as I remember, but it sure feels nice to share a meal & time with people we love.
My husband can’t be here most of the Sundays (another reason for my melancholy) , but when he is I try to make favorite dishes from his childhood.
One of his favorite is CHICKEN CACCIATORE & since I don’t have Nona’s recipe I came up with my own version of CHICKEN CACCIATORE that he loves.
