ingredients


Chicken

2 tablespoons butter or margarine
3 1/2 pounds broiler-fryer chicken, cut in serving pieces
1 cup onion, sliced
2 cloves garlic, crushed
2 tablespoons flour
1 can (1 pound size) tomatoes, undrained
1 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
2 teaspoons chopped parsley
2 bay leaves
1 1/2 teaspoon salt
4 teaspoons Tabasco sauce
3 cups green bell pepper, chopped

Steamed Rice

1 cup raw, converted white rice
2 1/3 cups cold water
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons butter
OR
1 tablespoon peanut oil

directions

In hot butter in a large skillet, saute the chicken until golden brown on all sides. Remove the pieces as they brown.

Add the onion and garlic to the drippings, and saute until soft. This should take approximately 5 minutes.

Blend in the flour until smooth. Remove from heat. Stir in the tomatoes, thyme, parsley, bay leaves, salt, and Tabasco sauce. Add the browned chicken pieces. Cook over low heat, covered but stirring occasionally for 15 minutes.

Add the green pepper. Cook over low heat, covered, for an additional 30 minutes, or until the chicken is tender. Serve with steamed rice.

For Steamed Rice: In a 3-quart saucepan with a lid, combine the rice, water, and salt. Bring to boiling, then reduce the heat to very low.

Fold a kitchen towel in quarters; place over the pan. Cover with a heavy lid. Cook for 25 to 30 minutes (the rice should be tender and water absorbed).

Add the butter; stir with fork. Turn into a heated serving dish.

  1. Chris G REVIEW:

    Totally awesome recipe, discovered it in that same recipe card collection in the Creole section that my mom had. Betty Crocker. I saute celery with the onions and changed the tobasco sauce to a tablespoon of Creole seasoning blend.

  2. Love to cook in Nashville REVIEW:

    This recipe is a very old favorite of mine, it was part of a recipe card collection my mom bought in the 70's, I have been making it since high school. It's a simple to make recipe and the flavor is AMAZING! Everyone loves it!
