Made this recipe for dinner last night, left out the chicken fat, and it was absolutely delicious. Instead of the chicken fat used margarine and it came out great. My husband loved it, as well, and asked me to make it again. Made it in a casserole dish, and we devoured 3/4 of the dish. Thank you so much for the recipe! Surely a keeper!
