"This was originally posted on another site by Seasoned Cook, and after making and reviewing it, it fast became one of my favorites. I have been making it for about 5 years now and LOVE IT. This is what Seasoned Cook says about her recipe: "This was a favorite dish my mother always cooked for my family. She shared this dish at church suppers and reunions...now this generation enjoys it. A good mix of flavors!" Here is my review of this luscious chicken. I did make a few modifications because I didn't have a few things on hand, and it may have improved the flavor. I always make it with my modifications because I like it that way so much. My review: Excellent, EXCELLENT, ExCeLlEnT is all I can say. Don't miss out on this one folks! Man Oh Man was this ever GOOD! I just happened to have a whole cutup chicken in the fridge waiting to cook, so decided to try it. Am I glad I did! I was out of onions, so I used about 1/2 cup dried onion and just put them in with a little extra water and let them simmer for awhile, and I didn't have celery, so I used 1 teaspoon celery salt in place of the chopped celery and salt listed in the recipe. Thanks so much for sharing this family favorite with us Seasoned Cook. YUMMO!!!"
