Portuguese Chicken: bonappetit.com

My Mom has been telling me about this recipe for Portuguese Chicken for a couple of months. Last Friday night we were invited to some friends house for dinner and I thought I'd let them be my testers.  It was a hit. My husband fell in love.  He ate it for 3 nights in a row.

It's a little on the complicated side only because the recipe included things I don't normally stock in my pantry.

 I don't usually have jarred roasted peppers...Is that odd?

I followed the recipe to a t...which is usually not in my nature.  My second picture the colors aren't so great because I lost my sun...oh well..Happy Cooking!

Southern Cooking.

I ♥ Southern cooking.   I love fried chicken, country fried steak, collard greens, succotash, black eyed peas, okra, boiled peanuts, grits... I just can't help it.  It's my favorite type of food to eat, mostly because  its what I grew up eating.

I remember when we moved out west my hubby and I were in Las Vegas and we asked for sweet tea, the waitress looked at us like we had four eyes.  Seriously!  She had no idea what we were talking about "Toto, I have a feeling we're not in Kansas anymore." 

I am getting to my point.  Southern cooking is having a spike in "trendiness" from NYC to Chicago to LA people are on the "grit"wagon and its moving fast. This month Bon Appetit's whole issue is dedicated to southern cooking.  The recipes in here are TO DIE FOR!  Check out this pan skillet-fried chicken...Yummy....Get this months Bon Appetit.  Its worth every penny.

Happy Southern Cooking :)
