Description

This braised chicken with light beer is a classic of Italian home cooking, perfect for a comforting and flavorful dinner. The chicken meat, tender and succulent, blends perfectly with the slightly bitter taste of the beer, creating an irresistible combination. I often prepare it when I have guests for dinner, because it is easy to make and everyone always likes it. Fresh rosemary and garlic add an aromatic touch that makes this dish truly special. Serve it with a side of baked or mashed potatoes for a complete and satisfying meal. Ideal for autumn evenings!
