SMOTHERED CHICKEN: Serves - 6
2 whole chickens cut into pieces
3 cups diced carrots
3 cups diced celery
1 very large diced onion
2 medium diced green peppers
2 lbs diced mushrooms
chicken bouillon (enough to cover mixture)
paprika
sage
poultry seasoning
Remove the skin and fat from chickens (except from the
wings) and place in a large roasting pan. Sprinkle the
seasoning on each piece of chicken and cover with diced
vegetables (except the mushrooms). Pour chicken bouillon
over the mixture. Liquid should come just to the top of
the vegetables.
Cover and Bake at 375 F. for 2 hours, then stir mushrooms
into the mixture and bake another half hour.
Serve over rice.
