Chicken Saute, Creole

Remove the head and legs of a tender two-and-a-half-pound chicken; then cut into twelve even pieces. Heat in a sautoire two tablespoons olive oil, add the chicken; season with a teaspoon salt, half teaspoon white pepper and gently cook for fifteen minutes, or until a nice golden colour, frequently tossing the chicken meanwhile.

Slice rather finely two medium, sound, white onions, two sound green peppers, and twelve very small, round, fresh mushrooms, peeled and thoroughly cleaned, and add all to the chicken. Mix well with a fork and cook on a steady fire for ten minutes, lightly mixing meanwhile. Then moisten with a gill broth, add four medium, sound, ripe, peeled and seeded tomatoes cut into small pieces; mix well, add one clove finely chopped garlic, one teaspoon chopped parsley and lightly mix. Cover the pan and let cook for fifteen minutes more. Dress on a hot dish and serve.
