About a month ago, on Williams-Sonoma's home page they were advertising a sale of some sort on one of their Dutch ovens {see photo above courtesy of Williams-Sonoma}. I clicked on their homepage at least a half dozen times to see this Dutch oven. I was obsessed and it wasn't really about the Dutch oven at all, it was what was INSIDE the Dutch oven that had me going. It was a chicken dish that looked like it was slow-braised and I could see red peppers and mushrooms (I think) and the beautiful golden color of the gravy had me salivating all over my keyboard! So, I finally set out to research what was in this beautiful pot (that I would love to have for Christmas--any family members reading this should take note) and after reviewing NINETEEN PAGES of poultry recipes on their website, finally just clicked on the "Dutch Oven" tab to see if I could find it that way.... BINGO!! Found the photo and realized that I could create that dish if I bought the Stewsday Chicken Paprika soup starter ..... EASY, right????
Well, I'm not usually a soup-starter kind of gal, so here's how I tried to create the dish on my own. I honestly have no idea if the tastes are remotely similar, but I do know that this chicken dish is one of the best I've ever created---especially based upon a picture alone.
