I have search the net to no end and can't find it..

My mom calls it "Chicken Marengo"

she made it when I was growing up and I am in the mood for a chicken and rice dish

it has chicken
rice
tomato bisque
mushrooms
cream of mushroom soup
onions
and I think maybe whole tomatos

anyway it is made to where the rice is cooked with all the ingredients in a
dutch oven (at least that is the way she did it)

I would do it in a casserole dish and make a much smaller portion

I know she got the original recipe of the back of a cambells soup label
but when I went to Cambells I couldn't find it

it's from the late 70's early 80's? I don't really remember when she started making it

does it sound familiar to anyone?


*in case you were wondering why I don't just call her....I really don't feel like dealing with her right now (long story)

Thanks

Saute the onions in olive oil till translucent. Add pieces of chicken, saute until brown on all sides. Add the tomatoes, the chicken stock and wine.

AAAWW Blue..You're such a sweetie!!! (((HUGGLES)))

evidently she used the first recipe and modified it..guessing she mixed the rice in to "sop" up all the extra sauce. that's the closest one that sounds right

I'll have to do my own modifications as well cause I do not like cream of mushroom soup

I also like the last one with the COC and cheese (after I take out all the spicy stuff)

and the last link??? WOW that's alot of chicken marengo recipes..couldn't even read them all

Will letcha know what I come up with ;)
