Nothing says being home more than my favorite chicken dinner. Usually I serve this on Chicken Mondays but I just could not wait. Because we are in the throes of jet lag I cheated a little and used a rotisserie chicken from the grocery store.

While we were traveling no chicken was had with the exception of John ordering some in Sicily. The thing to remember when you are in Italy is that when you order a meat dish that is what you get, meat. Only very occasionally do you get a vegetable or a starch with it. They have to be ordered separately.
