Chef and MSC UK ambassador, James Strawbridge says “this recipe is my twist on a classic, the well-loved dish hunter’s chicken (cacciatore). I’ve brought in Louisiana-style flavours to give it a sweet and smoky kick which balances nicely with the cheesy, comforting corn grits – or in this case, polenta.”

Coley is a great swap for cod as both have beautiful, flaky and meaty textures. The bacon protects the fish and keeps it juicy and tender, but if you don’t eat meat, you could make it without.
