For a richer flavor, use bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs. Brown them well before adding the vegetables. Add a splash of dry red wine to the sauce for extra depth of flavor. Fresh herbs like parsley or oregano can be added at the end for a brighter taste. Adjust the amount of cayenne pepper to your preference for heat. Serve with a sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese and a side of crusty bread for soaking up the delicious sauce.
