CHICKEN WITH RICE

Procure a young fowl, prepare it as for fricasseeing and put it into a pot, with a sliced onion, a red pepper cut into pieces and salt and hot water enough to keep it from burning. Simmer the fowl slowly for about an hour. Then turn in two cupfuls of canned tomatoes and cook very slowly for another hour. At the end of that time add a cupful of rice and cook slowly for three-quarters of an hour longer, until the chicken is very tender and the rice done. Season with parsley minced very fine and serve with the meat in the centre of a platter and the rice as a border. Care must be taken to keep the rice from burning. Properly seasoned, the dish is a very appetizing one.
