My mama cooked this every other day in Louisiana when i was growing up!
Please do a show with barbecued Cornell Chicken?
I found that I’m not crazy about sage. The methods on how I made this. I want more practice. What should I try next?
Why the vinegar?
Comfort food at it's finest…
Let the chicken shine? Lmaooo bruh where is the onion powder and adobo !😭🤦🏽♀️ nobody eats chicken “AS IS”
Great technique 👌
Hi! What happened to the green bell pepper? Celery is ok but bell pepper is so much more flavorful.
Hey ladies I miss watching y'all now I have YouTube I can catch up on my recipes
I love this show and recipes! Going to get their cookbook!!
I would've marinated the chicken overnight and then brown it 🤷🏽♂️💯
You'll tripping..I know that chicken bland and that gravy is not thick enough..you tried though.
Anyone have recommendations for sides with this?
"No contamination here"… except you never washed your hands after handling all that raw chicken!
Great easy delicious recipe. Thanks girls.
🤤🤤🤤 Looks great. 👍
Finally, a chicken with gravy that I an anxious to make.
…but I like the gravy and I like the chicken completely drowned by the sauce!!
White people really don’t like seasoning huh
Ummmm…..I don’t know
Thanks for the recipe. I'm trying it tonight
Yankee cooking. (a bad thing)
I bought a beautiful lil chicken today. Winner, winner…Sunday Smothered chicken dinner! My mom made something like this. But I don’t think she browned the chicken enough first. She called it ‘chicken stew’. growing up, my family only ever had rice with chicken. from NJ, not the south
Made this today (9-2-2020) so good even my finicky kid liked it. Recommend this recipe.
Dan did a video in 2014 about Making a Better Pan Sauce, where he proved that starting with wet, cold chicken skin-side down in a cold pan with half the oil, all on lower heat setting, produced more fond. More fond is more flavor.
Sauce is a little thin for me
I made this recipe exactly with chicken legs (on sale) Move over chicken & noodles this is my new comfort food for the winter and just as easy to make. Thank you 😊
Making this tonight for dinner 🍽 my kitchen smells great right now! Can’t wait to eat 😋
I would add pineapples for more yellow content
I have made this 3 times…I omit the garlic and instead serve it with oven roasted mashed potatoes…..it’s now one of my top ten chicken recipes.
Good job !
I like this recipe, I love chicken all though I have never had chicken cooked under an hour that was done and most importantly, tender.
Everyone just handle your freaking chicken the way you want! That being said, its always nice to see a chicken quartered again as a reminder of how its done, easily.
Never thought id be taking notes from white ppl cooking chicken but boy did this shit taste fucking delicious. Thanks
♥️🌹🌹
My two favorite cooks on ATC.😁
有意思！
先煎再煮，下次找食譜做做看。
Ugh, that chicken isn't properly seasoned.
I thought their aprons said “God’s country” and I was thought “wow they are going all in…”
Brave women handling deadly raw chicken.
GRAVY not sauce ladies!
Rinse or do not rinse the chicken prior 2 use that is the question.
Speaking of contamination
Dutch oven link sends me to a gravy separator
Looks fantastic; of course I'll have to brown it in some bacon fat and double the garlic…
coul you maybe make a video about butcher blocks for the kitchen.. becayse i want to buy one but i have no idea which is the best… i saw already the video with the cuttingboards but i think there are a bit different from each other!! i would be really happy if you could do this!! thank you!!! 🙂 🙂
i would love to try this!
It's a Friday during lent, WHY AM I WATCHING THIS!?!?!
I love this show, especially Bridget, Julia, Dan. I do have one quibble though. Julia used chicken broth in this recipe (which is pretty high in salt), then she added yet more salt. I saw her do the same thing in another recipe that called for capers. She rinsed them because they were briny, then popped in more salt! Lidia does this too. What’s up with all the salt??
