Pollitos en Vino Rojo (Chickens in Red Wine)


POLLITOS en VINO ROJO (Chickens in Red Wine)
2 whole chicken (cut up)
olive oil
vinegar
onion
garlic
herbs (we used approx. 2 tbs. oregano (a lot), teaspoon basil, dash of paprika, and teaspoon of thyme). 
salt and pepper
bacon
tomatoes
spring onions
carrots
red wine

Cut chicken in pieces (if not already cut) and marinate for 24 hours in the oil, vinegar, sliced onion, whole garlic, herbs, salt and pepper.

Cut bacon in cubes, place on fire and in the fat cook the chopped tomatoes, spring onions and chopped carrots.  Cook 5 minutes, add the chicken and the strained marinade, then the wine.  Cook gently until chicken is tender.   Serves 4-6. 

(This makes enough sauce that you could add more chicken to it if you desire)
It shoooore wuz good!

Pork Loin Roast

  PORK LOIN ROAST   Brown a pork loin roast under a broiler.     Put 4-5 chopped potatoes in bottom of crock pot.  Add 1/2 onion. Put in the roast. put the other 1/2 onion on top.  Sprinkle with salt, garlic powder, a touch of pepper and 1/2 tablespoon of rosemary.  Douse with 2 tbl soy sauce.  Cook on low eight hours.   Hubby fixed this today for super bowl night.  Along with 15-bean soup.  It sure was good.   Our roast was so tender it fell apart like BBQ.  It was soooooo good.  Hope you try one in your crock pot.
