directions
- Put flour, salt, pepper and chicken in a plastic bag. Shake well to coat all chicken pieces.
- Heat oil in a large frying pan or Dutch oven (that has a lid that fits well). Fry chicken uncovered for 4-5 minutes each side. Remove and set aside.
- In the same pan, add garlic, onions, mushrooms and fennel (if you use fennel seeds, you add these later), and cook for about seven minutes or until these ingredients are softened.
- Add the chicken stock, chopped tomato, Italian seasonings (or preferences), fennel seeds (if used) and chicken pieces. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes.
- While the above items are cooking, and in a separate pan, cook the diced bacon. Drain on paper towels and set aside. Reserve bacon fat.
- Cook diced potatoes in the microwave for about five minutes. Then saute until tender in the pan with the bacon fat.
- Cook broccoli in the microwave for 3-4 minutes and set aside. Use the microwave dish you used for the potatoes.
- Add broccoli and bacon to the main pan (the one with the chicken). Cook for 3-5 minutes to heat through.
- Serve over rice or mashed potatoes.

Yummy!! This was an easy dish with lots of flavor. I made this as written except that I used 4 boneless chicken breasts without the skin. I used the 3 cups chicken stock and served it over rice. My family devoured this and gave it 2-thumbs up. Thank you for sharing this wonderful recipe...it is definitely a keeper!
