Adam Greenberg

Chicken Scarpariello
Food Network's all-time winningest competitor with 5-0 record
  • Sparrow Pizza Bar · West Hartford, CT
@chefadamgreenberg

Five and zero. Adam Greenberg is the all-time winningest competitor in Food Network history, with a perfect record across the network's competition shows. One of those wins is here.

Greenberg runs Sparrow Pizza Bar in West Hartford, Connecticut. His 2018 weapon was Chicken Scarpariello — "shoemaker's chicken," the Italian-American braise of chicken thighs, sweet and hot Italian sausage, cherry peppers, garlic, white wine, and chicken stock, reduced into a sauce that should glaze the chicken rather than puddle around it. The technique is sequencing: brown the chicken hard, render the sausage, build the sauce on the fond, then return everything to the pan to finish.

Bobby has not broken Greenberg's streak. Almost nobody has.
