Growing up without grandparents. Or rather, growing up with grandparents on the other side of the country and the other set of grandparents deceased, it seemed we were always picking up other "grandma and grandpa" figures in our lives. My mom's parents had passed before many of us were born and my dad's father the same. His parents lived back in Philly and I do recall speaking to my grandmother once, though I couldn't understand her, (she spoke Italian) I remember telling her Hello, and that I loved her. I felt like the only kid on the planet with no grandparents!
This recipe comes from one such woman. She was my Aunt Virginia's mother. A week or so ago on social media, my cousin Deidre had posted a photo to her sister and said she was making "Grandma Gert's Chicken and Rice". They all were excited and it looked fabulous so I asked her for the recipe. She sent it right to me ad I decided to make it that next night.
I am going to give you the recipe straight from Gert! This lasted about 3 days for us. I served it with a big salad because it is so rich. Don't skimp on anything! This will feed an army!
I hope you give this a try! If you do, post a photo, tag me on social media, let me hear what you think!
Until next time....
