The Ospidillo Cafe Chicken Cacciatore Food

Does your family love chicken like mine does? This is my clan's all-round favorite dish of any sort. The original recipe came from Mr. Food (Art Ginsberg) before I messed with it a bit to suit our tastes. It's easy, fairly cheap, feeds 6, sticks to your ribs, and can be prepared easily in 90 minutes. Once you have it going, you just monitor it and make your spaghetti to serve it over (you could serve it over rice). I make this chicken cacciatore at least once a month and they'd be happier around here if I made it once a week! It is much better if the skin is left on while cooking (chicken doesn't get leathery that way) -- you can pull it off (it practically falls off) when you serve it if you wish. Also, if you use plain table salt, cut it back to 1/2 a teaspoon. Sometimes I use whole chickens, cut up, (without the backs, necks, and organs, which I save for making stock), and sometimes just legs and thighs -- it really doesn't matter. We often take this recipe camping, making up the spaghetti ahead of time and storing it in zip-lock bags in the cooler. One final variation -- you can substitute an equivalent amount of fresh Roma tomatoes instead of the canned ones for a "brighter" flavor but, if you do, add 6 ounces of V-8 juice to the recipe. Enjoy, my friends!

I originally got this recipe from WW. It's become such a staple around our house. I've added a few more veggies to it to make it a more complete meal. It's designed for a smaller crock pot, so if you have a large one, just double the recipe. Chicken can be thawed, partially thawed or even frozen; just adjust the cooking time. Fast, easy and oh so delicious.

This is a condiment served on Mexican dishes such as fajitas. The bright blend of flavors is just incredible and, before you know it, you'll be spooning this stuff over non-Mexican dishes such as fried chicken or pork roast. It will keep just fine for 3 or 4 days in the refrigerator. I got this recipe from an old church fundraiser cookbook (Reorganized LDS church in Independence, Missouri) that a beloved aunt sent me several years ago. I have never had better Pica de Gallo anywhere. (pronounced: Peek-uh day guy-O, according to my daughter who speaks some Spanish). I have a Mexican friend who also says it's pretty genuine and the best that he ever had too. This is much less tomato-ey than regular salsa. The time listed includes marinating time in the refrigerator. I hope others will enjoy this excellent Mexican condiment as much as my friends and family do.
