This one-pot meal with classic Italian flavors couldn’t be easier. The ingredients are combined in the pot, then pressure cooked or slow cooked until the chicken is fork-tender. To finish the dish and create a flavorful sauce, we thicken the cooking liquid with a couple tablespoons of flour—just enough for clingability but without any heaviness. A little lemon juice adds acidity and brightness. Serve over polenta or with hunks of crusty bread.
Tip
Don't worry that ½ cup vermouth is too little liquid. The chicken and vegetables release flavorful juices as they cook that, combined with the vermouth, form the base for the sauce.
