This is a recipe that my grandmother used to make. I call it Grand mom’s Famous Chicken. 


You take a whole chicken, cut it up, fry it in olive oil and butter until it is nice and brown. Take a pound of hamburger and mix it with locatelli grated cheese, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, bread crumbs, 1 egg,  parsley. 


Brown the meatballs. Take some potatoes and cut them up in quarters or smaller if you use big potatoes. 


Put everything in a pot, add water and let simmer for about 2 hours. Make a pound of pen points, after draining the macaroni’s, spread some locatelli cheese on the macs, then pour the juice from the chicken and meatballs and enjoy. I always add more cheese after I put my portion on my plate. You can take any part of the chicken. I use only the breast. Thank you.
