Funny man. Try my chicken. You'll love it. You especially can only have it once a year.:lol:
Hunter's Chicken, (Cacciatore) doesn't have to be made strictly according to a recipe. I prefer a whole chopped up chicken to just the breasts in that dish but cooking is all about personal preference isn't it.
Cowardly people are too mushy. Mind you, they are easy to debone (no spine). lol
Anyway, I go with Juan. CCacciatore is awesome.
CParmagiano is pretty good, too.
We like it stuffed & roasted. Might try opening a can of beer and roast the chicken upright with the beer inside the cavity. It's pretty good.
I have had this LG, makes for darn good chicken..
To our surprise my brother found a dish made especially for this type of "Haute Cuisine" at Guildford Mall in Surrey ( yes no joke please ).. Basically looks like a Bundt Cake pan and fit the beer can in the middle..
Cheers

Cool. We used a regular broiler pan with a coat hanger I bent to the right shape.
You performed an abortion on a chicken?8O
Here is a video on how to make Chicken Cacciatore. It's a simple recipe that shouldn't give anyone any trouble.

Sorry about that. It works fine for me. I just now tried it again. I'm using Firefox. Are you?
My italian mother-in-law, raised in Rome, made chicken cacciatore, and it was pretty simple, but
the key was the wonderful homemade italian speghetti sauce, that was put into
the chicken just before you put the lid on it. Just use the 'liquid' from the sauce,
and it has a beautiful flavour, and mixes nicely with whatever other things you
like to cook the chicken in, but not too much onion, as it takes over the flavour. The butter, and sauce should be the focal point of flavour, and of course, the chicken, and rosemary, and other light italian flavourings, nothing
strong, or spicy. She used pieces of chicken, cut up fat strips of breast mostly, and nothing with bones, just meat.
A little extra water can be added while cooking, if more liquid is needed.
We first started making Hunter's Chicken when I was in college and money was, if not scarce, it was carefully managed. We used mostly the whole chicken or if the legs and thighs were on sale we used that. I kind of got used to using the whole cut up chicken. It was cooked for an hour and a half so the meat was literally falling off the bone. This is still my favorite.
How can the discussion of "CHICKEN" be complete without mentioning the quintessential item on every national and/or ethnic cousine, the CHICKEN SOUP?
Here, again my chauvinism (preference) will prevail: the BEST chicken soup, in my humble opinion, is UJHAZI TYUKLEVES.
Google it. Most recipes come up in Hungarian, some in German. If you use the "Translate this" option, you WILL get a good chuckle, as well.

Next you will tell us that like Csirke Paprikash, your mother makes the best chicken soup but the recipe is so secret that it is locked in a vault in Budapest. If you can't show us the recipe, who cares.

Not at all, #juan! All I am trying to say is that despite all my best efforts to duplicate my Mother's recipe for Chicken Paprikash, regretfully, I have not managed to completely succeed, yet. I could give you MY recipe, but in all honesty, and in spite of my daughter's high regard of my Chiken Paprikash, I could not give you a recipe, which i know is not as perfect as have known my Mother's recipe to be.
As far as chicken soup is concerned, the one I refer to in this post, is not - to the best of my recollection - is my Mom's master piece. The best I ever had was in a restaurant in Toronto.
If you don't care, I don't care. The Google search on "UJHAZI TYUKLEVES" will yield more recipes than ou have time to try in your life time. And as I said in my previous post, in addition to experimenting, you can also have some fun with the literal translations.

The title of this topic is "Chicken Recipes". It is a forum where we discuss chicken recipes. We would be happy to discuss your recipes but so far, you have given us none. You allude to different Hungarian dishes as being the best, and you may well be right, but how would we know if we don't have a recipe?

#juan, please do not be a nitpicker.
I have given you two different Google searches that could yield you nearly 100 recipes for chicken soup alone. Doing similar Google search on Chicken (csirke) paprikash and you'll find the same.
While I am fairly industrious in the kitchen, I hate pecking out recipes on the computer, especially in view of the fact that the recipes I could recommend are there already, without me bruising my fingers.
In other words I gave you - albeit indirectly - more recipes than you and everyone on this post combined.

No. You have given nothing. Do your own research. Find your own recipes. Is it better everyone else "bruise" their fingers? Surely you've heard of "copy and paste".
Come back when you have something to contribute.
