(he was smitten).<br /><br />I think it was Julia Child who said the recipe was made from what was on hand after the battle of Marengo, and I take that as license to modify it at will. I've made many modifications to the recipe. First I cut it in half - 2 chickens is way to much. I have taken to making it in a LeCreuset buffet pan - a wide low covered pan, which at 3.5 qt, will barely contain a half recipe. <br /><br />I'm not a fan of pearl onions either and it offends me to use half an onion just to flavor the olive oil, then throw it away, so I reserve the onions as I'm browning the chicken and add them back in with tomatoes, etc. , and usually blow off the pearl onions. I saute the mushrooms separately in butter and lemon and add them,with the olives, at the very end. Not sure why your recipe doesn't say to do this, mine from the original book, certainly does say to. I've never bothered with the flambe.<br /><br />I think it is a great recipe and we've been married over 31 years. Some Blame it on the Bossa Nova. I blame it on the Chicken Marengo.Liz 53noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-683629829321293491.post-35150956109961817392010-08-24T18:58:56.411-04:002010-08-24T18:58:56.411-04:00I made Chicken Marengo and posted it to my blog.

There are so many variations, I bet it wouldn't taste the same twice! http://ohboykarencooks.blogspot.com/2010/01/chicken-marengo-poulet-la-marengo.htmlKarenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16505134228454833619noreply@blogger.com
