Preparation Time: 2 Hours Serving Size: 20
- 1 whole chicken
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 2 1/2 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 2/3 tablespoons salt
- 1 1/4 teaspoons Texas Pete hot sauce
- 1 1/4 cup ketchup
- 1/2 cup butter, melted

In a large stock pot, cover chicken
with water and bring to a boil. Lower heat, cover and simmer for 30 minutes or until chicken is
tender and no longer pink near the bone. Remove chicken from broth and cool
(reserve the stock). De-bone
chicken, discarding the skin and cut meat into bite size pieces. Set aside. Squeeze lemon juice into a bowl and
remove lemon zest. Add juice and zest along with remaining ingredients to stock
pot and cook
30 minutes or until thick. Add chicken pieces to stew and heat through. Even
better when made a day ahead, allowed to cool and stored in the refrigerator
over night and reheated to served the next
day. |
