What didn't he adhere to? He's got all the ingredients listed in the classic dish.

Yeah seems like it. Was simply remarking upon the confusion I experienced in reading the following:

Cacciatore means "Hunter" in Italian, so Chicken Cacciatore is chicken cooked hunter style. Evidently hunter style in Italy is fowl of some sort, peppers, onions, mushrooms, tomatoes, capers and herbs stewed in wine, since these things are the ingredients in a classic cacciatore. I think chicken cacciatore is what is fixed when the hunter comes home empty handed.

Didn't know if he was trying to redefine the dish to fit what he was making, as has been the case a few times in the past.
