My boyfriend in high school was part Italian. His mom was 100% Italian. So, if you know anything about that culture, we always ate really well. She made the best Italian pasta dishes and we always stuffed ourselves full. Usually there was more than one course that we had to go through, so sometimes she would put some of the ingredients in the slow cooker so she could work on other dishes.
One of those meals was an Italian chicken that was so tender and juicy, I would often fill up on that and let the other people enjoy whatever else she had made. I was shocked when I was searching through Spend with Pennies one day and found the same exact recipe.
I couldn’t wait to make it. It turned out just as good as I remember. Okay, maybe hers was a little better but she had authentic Italian to put into hers. My whole family ate this right up and it has become a regular menu item at our house.
