The Cook's Corner QUICK CHICKEN FRICCASEE Here’s something you can whip up in very short order when you, and the family, have been out on a day’s jaunt and come home just a bit weary. INGREDIENTS: (To serve six generously). Two dozen chicken wings, two large cans plain chicken broth, two and a half cups Bisquick, six green onions, salt and pepper to taste. PREPARATION: Cover chicken wings with water and cook over moderate flame until nearly tender enough for the meat to come off the bones. Place in large kettle and add canned broth and bring to a boil, after seasoning to taste with additional salt and a bit of fresh ground black pepper. Mix Bisquick to soft dumpling consistency and drop tablespoons full on top of the chicken and broth, ‘‘dunking’”’ each dumpling carefully into the broth so that it is well dampened. Cover kettle tightly and cook over low heat for approximately 10 12 minutes. When dumplings are well cooked, remove contents of kettle to a deep serving dish — with dumplings on top of the chicken and broth. Chop the green onions and sprinkle them over the dumplings. It is a very tasty meal and kind to the food budget. VARIATION: Instead of dumplings you may prefer to use either homemade or commercial noodles. An interesting seasoning for variety is the herb Rosemary. . . used very lightly so as not to overwhelm the flavor of the chicken. Some also like to add a package of frozen chicken livers to the chicken wings for added richness. In this case, thaw the livers before using them in this fashion.
