BAYOU STYLE CHICKEN SAUCE PIQUANTE
Cajun and Creole homes have been dining on Sauce Piquant for generations. Some like it with Alligator, some with chicken. The main ingredient can even be seafood. But the process is all the same. You must have the trinity (onion, bell pepper, and celery), and you must make a roux.

Steps:

- Dredge chicken pieces in Creole seasonings and 1/2 cup flour and brown in the oil, preferably in a cast iron pan.

- Keep the heat going under your frying pan and add the bacon grease.
- When grease is hot, slowly whisk in the flour.

- Reduce heat to medium.

CHICKEN SAUCE PIQUANTE
Steps:
- Heat 1/4 cup of the olive oil in large heavy nonstick pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Season the chicken with 1 teaspoon of the salt. In a bowl combine the Essence with 1/2 cup of the flour and stir to combine. Dredge the chicken pieces in the seasoned flour mixture and shake to remove any excess flour. Brown the pieces, in batches if necessary, until golden on all sides, 10 to 12 minutes. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
- Stir in the onions, bell peppers, celery, remaining 1/2 teaspoon of salt, crushed red pepper flakes, cayenne, and bay leaves. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are soft and lightly golden, about 5 minutes. Add the remaining 3 tablespoons of the flour and cook, stirring, to cook the flour without browning, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the tomatoes, chicken stock, Worcestershire, and pepper sauce.
- Return the chicken to the pot, increase the heat under the sauce to medium-high and bring to a gentle boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low. Simmer uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is fall-from the bone tender, about 1 1/2 hours. Remove and discard the bay leaves.
- To serve, spoon the rice onto plates, top with the chicken and sauce, and garnish with the green onions and parsley.
- Combine all ingredients thoroughly.

SAUCE PIQUANTE AU POULET
This traditional dish needs a lot of TLC. Cooks who need to save time may want to use the slow cooker method. You won't achieve the layers of flavor but you will still have a robust tasting dish.

Steps:
- 1. Heat lightly salted water in a cast iron skillet or Dutch oven. Boil chicken thighs and breasts until cook. Lower heat and simmer for 30 min.

- 3. On medium heat add olive oil to Dutch oven. Pan sear chicken and remove. Add 2 T. butter and sauté onions, celery and green onions (Trinity) until onions are clear.
- 4. Add prepared blonde roux until it begins to soften. Slowly add 1 cup of the chicken stock. Stir until well blended.
- 5. Now add the 6 ounces of tomato pastes and 2 more cups of chicken stock. Mix well. Add in petite diced tomatoes, garlic, and bay leaf. Simmer on medium heat for 20 min.
- 6. Add in chicken, Cayenne pepper, and salt and pepper to taste. Simmer until mixture thickens completely into a smooth gravy. About 10 to 15 min. Top with green onions and parsley
