Steps

1
Heat olive oil and butter in a large stock pot or saucepan over medium heat.
2
Add chicken, skin side down, to the heated oil and brown chicken on each side until golden. Work in batches so that the chicken isn't overcrowded.
3
Remove chicken from the skillet and set aside. Add onions, bell peppers, and sliced mushrooms to the pan and cook until softened.
4
Add the minced garlic and saute 1-2 minutes longer.
5
Deglaze the pan by adding the sherry (or wine) and simmering, scraping the brown bits from the bottom of the pan.
6
Add basil, oregano, tomatoes (juices included) and chicken broth. Stir to combine.
7
Add the chicken back into the pan, nestling it down into the sauce. Bring the sauce to a simmer and then reduce the heat to low. Cover and cook 30 minutes more.
