This iconic whiskey is a "Jack of all trades" when it comes to cooking. Toss it in some pasta, as a savory dipping sauce, and even bake it into something sweet.

ingredients
1 large whole boneless chicken breast cut into cubes
1 medium eggplant, peeled and cubed
1 large onion sliced
1 large tomato chopped
1 clove garlic, chopped
1 large green bell pepper, chopped
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
2 cups tomato sauce ( home made or canned )

coarse grated black pepper to taste
1/2 pound prepared cooked pasta or egg noodles
directions
In a saute pan with a small amount of olive oil over medium high heat, saute first the eggplant until browned and then the onion, pepper, cilantro, and garlic and cook a few more minutes to soften vegetables. Add the chicken and cook to brown a bit. Add the tomato sauce and salt and pepper to taste and lower heat to a simmer and cover and cook 10 to 20 minutes; stirring on occasion. Serve over pasta or noodles of choice.
cook's notes
Using leftovers, this recipe proved to be very welcome and satisfying. Some crusty bread and a green salad makes a nice accompaniment.
Canned or some sauteed mushrooms are also a nice addition to the recipe.

Keeping a can of frozen orange juice concentrate in the freezer means you can make more than just orange juice. Try it in a variety of orange-flavored recipes.
Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.

Could you substitute alfredo sauce for tomato sauce?
I don't see why not!

This was delicious and really simple to make! I had leftover chicken (dark meat) and 1 eggplant and wanted to make something to combine the two. I used 5 cloves of garlic instead of 1, added cumin and other spices to taste. I don't like cilantro so didn't add. Served over linguini pasta and topped with grated parmesan cheese.
