I really enjoyed this! I've had this saved forever and kept forgetting to try it when I had the veggies for it. I'm glad I remembered this time. I doubled the recipe, using 2 medium chicken breasts sauteed in olive oil. After removing them from the pan I sauteed the celery, onion, and garlic in the drippings, adding oil as needed. I think this would be equally delicious with diced smoked ham or turkey, or even adding crumbled bacon. Thanks for the recipe!

Besides being a mother of 3, grandmother of 2 (but hope for more one day), I'm a registered nurse who works in intensive care. There is nothing more relaxing for me than to get home from a 12-hour shift and spend hours cooking something.
I also love to search for recipes online...which I think makes me a total foodie nerd.
