My Story
Since childhood, Chicken Marengo has been one of my favorites. And I like eating it with rice. If I had my way, I would have it as some sort of “weekly viand”. As a fan of spicy chicken and rice casserole dishes, it’s a delight to have Chicken Marengo feature these two.

the photo looks like it is the whole chicken and not just the breast?
Yep. Other parts will do. Chicken thighs are nice. But chicken breasts, in my opinion, are better for this kind of cooking.
