  1. I laughed when I read all the comments from people who insist that their version of Chicken Sauce Piquant is the only "authentic" one. Who cares? I'm sure every version is delicious in their own way. Lighten up people.

  2. To make this more like south Louisiana cooking where I’m from, you should:
    add celery & sauté the veggies until tender, cook the veggie/ flour mixture slowly until it starts to turn a little brown
    reduce the amount of tomato & cook it down with the veggies until it gets a more orange- brown color & then add the chicken.
    See The Cajun Ninja YouTube channel for step by step instructions. PS – those brown bits in the pan we don’t call it fond – we can it gradoo or grutaun ( I can pronounce it but not sure if I spelled it correctly). In a nutshell, the veggies must be cooked more & the sauce is too red & we use chicken on the bone & leave it in the oven for twice as long. Hope this helps the previous person who was asking for specific revisions to make it more like our recipe.

  3. Funny, I was just eating this as I watch. I never knew what it was called. I make it with Tomato Paste and Rotel (the green chili gives a nice taste). Only thing I was missing was Oregano and Thyme. I also use red peppers too.

  4. Watch the video called "ShadowGate / The Documentary 2020". Look up " thereturn.org " National & Global Day of Prayer & Repentance on Sept 26. God will heal our land if we Repent & Pray. Believe and Trust in the bl o o d that was shed by J e s u s C h r i s t for your sins; being born again/saved. Humble yourself before the LORD and S A V I O U R J e s u s C h r i s t and pray. Pray by lying prostrate on the floor with your face to the ground. The ultimate humility before Jesus Christ is you on your face. Read 1 Corinthians 15:1-4.
