This is the easiest, dump everything in one pot, chicken…and it is delicious!

Ingredients:

4# chicken pieces, bone-in, skin off

1- 15 oz. can tomato sauce (use almost all of it)

3 to 4 teaspoons salt

1/4 cup olive oil

1/4 cup vinegar (I use white)

12 pimiento stuffed green olives (I use many more, we love them)

1 teaspoon capers

12 cloves garlic, crushed in mortar or pressed, if pressed use a bit less

1 onion, vidalia or Spanish, peeled and sliced or quartered

2#’s of potatoes, peeled and cubed (not too big)

1 cup sherry

Wash chicken and place in large pot with all other ingredients, give a little stir and over high heat bring to a boil.  Reduce heat to medium, medium low, cover and keep at low boil for about an hour.  That’s it!  If not ready  then leave uncovered for a bit.  Serve over white rice.  This freezes very well but eat all of the potatoes before freezing, they get powdery in freezer.
