Pastitsada
Corfiot Braised Rooster with Pasta
A traditional Corfiot dish featuring tender rooster (or chicken) slow-braised in a rich, aromatic tomato and red wine sauce, infused with warm spices. Served over thick pasta and finished with grated Kefalotiri cheese, this dish showcases a distinct Venetian influence on the island of Corfu.

Pat the rooster or chicken pieces dry with paper towels. Season generously with salt and pepper. Heat the olive oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken pieces in batches until deeply golden brown on all sides, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove the browned chicken to a plate and set aside.
โฑ๏ธ 15 minutes - 2
Reduce the heat to medium. Add the chopped onions to the pot and sautรฉ, stirring occasionally, until softened and translucent, about 8-10 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
โฑ๏ธ 10 minutes - 3
Pour in the red wine, scraping the bottom of the pot with a wooden spoon to loosen any browned bits. Let the wine simmer and reduce by about half, about 5 minutes.
โฑ๏ธ 5 minutes - 4
Stir in the tomato passata, water or broth, ground cinnamon, ground cloves, ground allspice, and the bay leaf. Bring the sauce to a simmer. Return the browned chicken pieces to the pot, ensuring they are mostly submerged in the sauce. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
โฑ๏ธ 5 minutes - 5
Cover the pot, reduce the heat to low, and let the pastitsada braise gently for at least 2.5 to 3 hours, or until the chicken is exceptionally tender and falling off the bone. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking. If the sauce becomes too thick, add a splash more water or broth. The sauce should be rich and slightly thickened.
โฑ๏ธ 2.5 - 3 hours - 6
About 15-20 minutes before the chicken is finished braising, bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Add the thick pasta and cook according to package directions until al dente (firm to the bite). Drain the pasta well.
โฑ๏ธ 15-20 minutes - 7
Once the chicken is tender, remove the bay leaf. Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning if necessary. To serve, portion the cooked pasta onto plates. Ladle a generous amount of the rich rooster and sauce over the pasta. Top with the grated Kefalotiri cheese.

- โTraditionally made with rooster for a deeper, richer flavor, but chicken is a readily available substitute.
- โThe slow braising process is key to tenderizing the meat and melding the complex spice flavors.
- โDon't skimp on the spices; they are central to the authentic Pastitsada taste.
- โThe Venetian influence is evident in the use of wine and the rich, slow-cooked sauce.

- For a vegetarian version, omit the meat and use hearty vegetables like eggplant or mushrooms, braised in the spiced tomato sauce.
- Add a pinch of nutmeg to the spice blend for an extra layer of warmth.
- Some recipes include a small amount of sugar to balance the acidity of the tomatoes.
