    Title: Chicken A La Orange

    I think of that as a French dish. But...

    Recipe from: "Roger's Cajun Cookbook"

    -red pepper (to taste)
    -onion powder (to taste)
    -garlic powder (to taste)
    -dash Tabasco sauce (if
    -desired)

    Aha! There's the Cajun part. They put their own spin on everything.

    Title: Cajun Chicken Fricassee
    Categories: Chicken, Cajun
    Yield: 4 Servings

    3 1/2 ts Lard
    3 lb Frying chicken; cut up
    Flour
    2 c Onion; chopped
    2 c Water
    1 1/4 ts Salt
    3/4 ts Black pepper; fresh ground
    1 Whole bay leaf; crushed
    1 ts Fresh parsley; minced
    1/4 ts Dried thyme
    1/8 ts Cayenne
    1/8 ts Turmeric
    1/8 ts Allspice
    1 ts Chives; minced
    1/8 ts Mace
    1 ts Worcestershire sauce

    In a large heavy kettle or pot melt the lard over medium heat.
    Dust the chicken parts with flour and brown on all sides in the
    hot lard, several pieces at a time. Remove the browned pieces to
    a platter.

    When all the chicken has been browned and the last pieces removed,
    add the onions to the hot lard and cook, stirring, until they are
    soft and brown. Add 1 tablespoon flour and brown, stirring
    constantly. Add the chicken and the remaining ingredients and cook
    over low heat for 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until the chicken is
    tender when pierced with a fork. Stir every few minutes to
    distribute the seasonings and brown the chicken evenly.

    When done, remove the chicken to a serving platter, turn off the
    heat, and stir the gravy vigorously to bring up the seasoning from
    the bottom of the pot. To serve, put the chicken pieces on plates,
    then stir the gravy well and spoon generously over each portion.

    Serve with boiled rice or mashed potatoes, with some of the gravy
    poured over.

    ... You can Cajunize anything with onion, celery, peppers and Tabasco.
