Bonacini's Italy

Charming host Chef Michael Bonacini explores the mountainous region of Basilicata with a feast fit for any celebration. Beginning with an antipasto that caters to the region's southern heat, Michael stuffs crunchy sweet peppers with ripe tomatoes, savoury anchovies, and fresh oregano. Moving on to the primo, Michael cooks up a creamy Vermicelli Frittata. Using leftover pasta, he combines eggs with cheese, anchovies, and chili flakes for extra flavour to make a classic Basilicata dish. Michael cooks up Pollo Alla Potentina, a traditional meal from the Feast of Saint Gerard. This hearty chicken stew is sure to heat up your core, using hot peppers as the base of the meal. For his final dish, Michael combines the rich tastes of pomegranate, walnuts, and dark chocolate to create his unique Sweet Wheat Bowl.
