Chicken Marengo
    1 3 1/2-lb  chicken, quartered, or your favorite pieces
    3 Tbsp  oil
    2 cup  canned tomatoes
    1 tsp  salt
    1/2 tsp  Worcestershire Sauce, I use Lea & Perrins
    1 pinch  pepper
    couple pinches  cayenne
    1/2 tsp  thyme
    1 Tbsp  minced parsley
    1  bay leaf
    3 cloves  minced garlic
    1 Tbsp  flour
    1 small  onion, chopped
    1  bell pepper, chopped
    1/2 cup  dry white wine
    1/2-1 lb  mushrooms, sliced
    1/4 cup  stuffed green olives, sliced
      cooked rice, hot
    sprigs  parsley
This one of my father's favorite meals. Dry the chicken and saute it in oil, browning each side. Set aside. Add tomatoes to oil in pan and simmer, covered, for 10 minutes. (I assume I cut the tomatoes up a bit, but it has been a Long time since I made this.) Add the salt, Worcestershire Sauce,
      pepper, and cayenne and cook, covered, for 10 more minutes. Add

the thyme, parsley, bay leaf, and garlic and cook, covered, for 15
minutes more. Add wine, blend in flour (which you might want to
make into a paste with some of the wine first), and stir
constantly til thickened. Add chicken and remaining ingredients.
Cover and simmer for 45 minutes or til chicken is tender. Serve
with hot cooked rice, garnished with parsley. Jean B. via rfr
