Method using a Stove
After cleaning the chicken, lightly coat/ dust it in the flour and keep aside. Heat the oil in a flat and large skillet, after a minute insert the coated chicken breasts. Keep on medium flame and turn golden brown on both sides. Remove and set aside
In the same skilled, add garlic and sautee for 1 minute on low flame, then add the sausages and fry them for a few minutes, feel free to add a little oil or butter so that it doesn't stick to the bottom of the pan.
Now add the tomatoes, spinach or other vegetables and saute for another 5 minutes. Add the roemary, stock cube and a cup of water. After a minute add in the peppercorns, the chicken breast and the peppers. Add the lemon juice and let this simmer for 15-20 mins on low flame.
Scarpariello is usually made without milk or cream, but I added some to my recipe.
After this add in the milk and cream with salt and pepper, please check for taste before doing so. Keep stirring for a few mins and then turn off the stove.
