1
Start by preparing the peppers because they will take the longest.

Preheat the broiler.

3
Pull out the cores of the red peppers; then halve them lengthwise and remove the ribs and seeds.

4
Toss the peppers with a little olive oil, salt, and pepper.
-
5
Place them on a cookie sheet, skin side up, and broil for 10 minutes, until really charred and blistered.

Put the peppers into a bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and steam for about 10 minutes to loosen the skins.

Peel the peppers and roughly chop into chunks; set aside.

Dip each piece in the egg wash to coat and then dredge with the flour again.

Place a Dutch oven over medium heat and pour in about 1/4-inch of oil.

Pan-fry the chicken in batches, skin side down, until crisp, about 8 minutes.

Turn the chicken over and brown the other side about 10 minutes longer.

Remove the chicken to a side plate, pour out the oil, and clean out the pot.

Tuck the chicken into the stewed peppers and pour in the wine.
