This recipe calls for a "Chinese" chicken which I don't have. I do have a chicken from Albania and one from Mexico (but I don't think it is legal). Would it increase global warming if I was to fly one in from mainland China?

I have been looking for this recipe for many years. It first appeared in "BON APPETIT" magazine about 25 years ago. It is delicious. I am so glad the Gores found it in the same magazine and shared it with everyone.

General:Nutmeg is the seed of Myristica fragrans, an evergreen tree native to the Molucca Islands. Interestingly, the tree produces both Nutmeg and mace, and grows up to 60 feet tall....
Very easy to make. Just tried the basic dough. Going to make it a second time today. Especially easy for beginners.


A simple and delicious chicken casserole that doesn't take a lot to make or enjoy!
