CHICKEN a la CACCIATORE Two fresh young chickens, singed and jointed. Two tablespoons Italian olive oil. One tablespoon butter. Two sliced onions. Saute the onions slowly in the olive oil and butter (slow fire). Two garlic beans, chopped very fine. Have chicken clean and dry.

Cook slowly and turn every few minutes. Two fresh green peppers (sliced). Four potatoes (quartered).

Tomatoes may be added if desired. Four bay leaves.

Pepper and salt to taste. Cover and saute slowly until tender. Peppers, potatoes, etc., added at same time as chicken.

The above is a dish of which I am very fond. most truly Earlyn Verobit
