Ingredients
  • 3 fryers
  • (about 1 1/2 lb. each)
  • salt & pepper to taste
  • 1/2 cup butter or oil
  • 1 cup white wine
  • 1 cup hot water
  • 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
Directions
  • Step 1 Thoroughly clean and wash chickens. Truss them, and allow to drain.
  • Step 2 Sprinkle lightly with salt & pepper.
  • Step 3 Melt the butter in a frying pan. Brown the chickens, one at a time, well on all sides, then place them in a wide pot.
  • Step 4 Pour in the fat remaining in the frying pan, and place this pot over heat.
  • Step 5 Pour in wine slowly, so it steams, and add water.
  • Step 6 Cover. Simmer, adding more water if needed, for about 30 minutes. When chickens are tender, remove from heat & cool partially, then cut into quarters.
  • Step 7 Add walnuts to the sauce, stir, and bring the sauce to a boil.
  • Step 8 Cook for 2 to 3 min. longer. Add the quartered chickens and serve hot with fried potatoes and a raw salad.
