CHICKEN SAVOY

A whole chicken cut into pieces and baked with a simple mixture of olive oil, chicken stock, garlic, spices and cheese - topped with balsamic vinegar just before serving. The best Chicken Savoy on the planet is served at the Belmont Tavern in Bloomfield, where it was invented by Stretch himself. Go there, order Savoy for two, and order Zita with pot cheese. They make a wonderful combination. The place is not fancy, but the food is outstanding. This is a recipe to eat with your fingers and get juices on your hands. Yum!

SAVOURY CHICKEN



Savoury Chicken image

One of those dishes that reaps in way more compliments in relation to the effort (what effort?) that went into making it. So good with a mixed greens salad and a rice pilaf. This is also really good on the grill - baste with the marinade a couple of times. Then I like it with cole slaw and corn on the cob.
