Thrifty whole chicken is cut up and simmered in a spicy tomato sauce. I serve it with crusty bread so we can mop up and enjoy every last drop of sauce.—Gilda Lester, Millsboro, Delaware Ingredients:
1 can (14-1/2 ounces) fire-roasted diced tomatoes, undrained |
1 medium onion, chopped |
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and chopped |
3 tablespoons brown sugar |
3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar |
1 tablespoon ground mustard |
1 teaspoon dried basil |
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes |
1 cup beer or nonalcoholic beer |
1 broiler/fryer chicken (3 to 4 pounds), cut up and skin removed |
1 envelope (1-1/4 ounces) chili seasoning |
hot cooked pasta |
Directions:
