My husband and I like to experiment on people. Not on the person, actually, but more using people as guinea pigs. We would never actually do this to a guinea pig, and no animals were harmed, let alone in the area, during the making of this dish. It's this odd habit we have of generally making dinner we have never tried before and feeding it to guests. Granted, we experiment with food all the time when it's just us, but guests are not spared with an old standby. After that lengthy introduction, we had the missionaries over time to eat with us, and we made an excellent dish. I would do it again, and again, and again, until I started to wonder what all the cream and bacon was doing to my cardiovascular system. But that's another topic. Here is the recipe. It's good. Try it.
What did I change? I used chicken thighs, bone in, no skin. It worked fine, but make sure the juices run clear. Also, I used bacon in place of the pancetta. And I have no idea what Charlotte potatoes are. Red potatoes worked great. Tasty!
