We started with our Cacciatore recipe but made the following changes:
Andouille instead of Italian sausage.
Cut back on the mushrooms, increased the peppers.
Let the onions caramelize for a while before adding other things.
Used red wine vinegar rather than balsamic.
Added Calabrian chile sauce and a little anchovy paste.
Seasoning mix was: Salt, pepper, both sweet and half-sharp paprika, oregano, thyme, bay leaf, and garlic.
