This particular recipe comes from my husband's mother, but SHE got it from one of her neighbors -- an Italian lady. Those who are Italian can testify to (or against) it's authenticity. There may be some changes due to ingredient availability, and she used a chicken neck, whereas I just stick a breast in (for flavor). Either way, it's delicious!
