Ok, you're right. The name doesn't sound appealing. (Some have mistakenly called it 'chicken swamp.') It's not particularly pretty either. But this dish is pure, unadulterated Southern comfort food.
Ingredients
- 1 small chicken, whole, cleaned
- 1 onion, diced
- 300g polish sausage, sliced
- 4c water
- pinch of sage
- salt and pepper
Preparation
- Boil the chicken with the diced onions, sage, and some salt and pepper in the water for approximately 90 minutes in a covered stock pot. (I used a Le Creuset Dutch oven.)
- Remove the chicken and de-bone.
- Return the meat, sausage and 2 cups of rice to the broth and cook as you would rice. Season and serve hot.
