Sauce piquante

Check the Recipe Thread as I think there's one in it.

Treedawg's is the only one you need

I have this one in the Recipe Thread, but I think Tree Dawg's is in there first.


Chicken Sauce Picante with Sausage and Tasso

Ingredients

2 onions,diced
4 stalks celery,diced
1 bell pepper,diced
5 cloves garlic,crushed
1/2 bunch Italian parsley,minced
6 green onions,minced
1 small jar olives,rough chopped
2 large jalapeno peppers, chopped
2 bay leaves
1 T each,thyme,oregano and basil
Salt, black and red pepper to taste
2 fryers
1 lb smoked sausage
1 lb tasso
2 28 oz cans of Cento brand crushed tomatoes
@ 2 qts chicken stock

Method


I covered the diced tasso with a qt of water and simmered it for an hour.
I cut up the chicken.floured and fried it,then deboned it once cool. Got that idea from Paul Prudhomme. Browned my sausage, then sauteed the veggies until translucent(added them in layers per PP). Then added the crushed tomatoes,the meat and tasso stock, about 1 to 2 qts more chicken stock,all seasonings and the olives. Simmered 45 minutes and added the parsley and green onions and went another 15 minutes or so on a simmer while adjusting the seasonings. Good stuff over rice.
