CHICKEN SAUCE PIQUANTE

Steps:

• Heat 1/4 cup of the olive oil in large heavy nonstick pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Season the chicken with 1 teaspoon of the salt. In a bowl combine the Essence with 1/2 cup of the flour and stir to combine. Dredge the chicken pieces in the seasoned flour mixture and shake to remove any excess flour. Brown the pieces, in batches if necessary, until golden on all sides, 10 to 12 minutes. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
• Stir in the onions, bell peppers, celery, remaining 1/2 teaspoon of salt, crushed red pepper flakes, cayenne, and bay leaves. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are soft and lightly golden, about 5 minutes. Add the remaining 3 tablespoons of the flour and cook, stirring, to cook the flour without browning, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the tomatoes, chicken stock, Worcestershire, and pepper sauce.
• Return the chicken to the pot, increase the heat under the sauce to medium-high and bring to a gentle boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low. Simmer uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is fall-from the bone tender, about 1 1/2 hours. Remove and discard the bay leaves.
• To serve, spoon the rice onto plates, top with the chicken and sauce, and garnish with the green onions and parsley.
• Combine all ingredients thoroughly.

CHICKEN SAUCE PIQUANT

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients for spice mix and toss chicken in spice mix, making certain the chicken is evenly coated. Wash your hands.
• In wide bottom pot or Dutch oven, heat oil until it begins to smoke slightly. While waiting, coat the chicken with the flour in a large mixing bowl, tossing the chicken with your hands to make sure it all gets coated well. Shake excess flour off the chicken, reserving the leftover flour.
• Pan fry the chicken over medium heat. Don't crowd the pan with the chicken or it will not get the right color. The pieces should be side by side, not on top of one another. When chicken has reached the desired color, remove it from the pan with a slotted spatula. Most likely you will have to do this in two batches.
• Add the remaining flour to the oil in the pan, and cook over medium heat for about five minutes to make a medium brown roux. Add onions, peppers, garlic and celery, and cook five minutes more. Add the tomatoes, chicken, dried thyme, bay leaves, stock and hot sauce.
• Simmer over low heat for 45 minutes. Serve over rice with freshly diced scallions.
