Chicken Italiano

This is the entree recommended by Ada Graham, Moosilauke Ravine Lodge summer (2009) manager for Alex and Dan's Wedding Weekend Saturday night dinner. She said Chicken Italiano paired with Greek Roasted Potatoes is is a MRL favorite for wedding dinners. Coincidentally, the recipe is from the Creme de Colorado Cookbook, which has long graced Moogie's cookbook shelf in Carbondale.
