Ingredients
3 lb chicken breasts -- skin
1 on/bone in
1/2 lb homemade chorizo -- to
1 follow
2 tbsp olive oil
1 medum onion
5 cloves garlic -- cut in
1 half
1 large green bell pepper -- sliced
1 thinly
1 tsp dried oregano leaves
1 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
4 bay leaves
1 small can

Directions
1. Throughly wash and dry the chicken breasts 2. Cut a slit in the
thickest part to put in the chorizo sausage. Divide the sausage among
the breasts. 3. Heat oil in a large Dutch oven until hot, put in the
stuffed chicken breasts, (you can keep them together with toothpicks)
and brown on all sides. About 10 min.? drain fat. 4. Add all of the
remaining ingredients. Heat to boiling, reduce heat, cover and simmer
until chicken is tender. 5. Remove bay leaves. Arrange the chicken
breasts on a large platter and serve with the remaining sauce. I'd
serve with rice or hot cooked black beans. Now for homemade Chorizo!

The History of Recipes
We can read the history of `recipes` back into history, at least as far back into recorded history as ancient Egypt, and maybe further still. However, these, early cookbooks were just primitive hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for food preparation.
In fact, the oldest recipe in existence, according to Professor Solomon Katz, is a collection of ancient tablets in ancient Sumerian which show the making of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as having made anyone who drank it feel exhilarated. Later on, in Roman times around 25BC a man called Apicius compiled a few scripts describing recipes prepared by his fellow Romans. In his works, Apicius tells us how the meals were separated into hors d`oeuvre, main meal and desserts, a very modern way of dining. Additionally, he describes how the chefs of Roman times made use of many different spices and herbs, including many that are still in use today such as basil, fennel and parsley. Later on in the 1400s, the Crusaders brought back many foods and herbs from Arab cooking, including parsley, basil and rosemary. The introduction of these new foods and spices prompted an eruption in cookery books, the majority of which are now in academic collections. For the next few years, the wealthy families of Wesstern Europe competed with each other to serve up the most exotic meals, and as a consequence, the best cooks and their collection of recipes were highly sought after. Nevertheless, it wasn`t until the 19th century the formal cooking and cookery books rose to prominence. Mrs Beeton in the UK, and Fannie Merritt Farmer in the US, dedicated the best years of their lives to collating, testing, and recording popular recipes of the day. The introduction of the TV brought us TV cookery programs and the recipe books that accompanied them. Which pretty much brings us up to date and the internet revolution, allowing everybody to search through massive numbers of recipes like those on this site. |
