this is a dish I have been making for decades. Been a while since I whipped up a batch and the wife was asking me to make it thus, I made it. So good! the prep kinda takes while but its not really difficult and VERY WORTH IT. I have a pic of it done and out of the oven...we scarfed it down before plated pics were taken. Served over rice last night, but its great over pasta, rice, farro, I think it would be great on anything or by itself with sides. heres the pic (there is a whole chicken cut up uder all that goodness you can see) and my version of the recipe;
