The traditional meat for this easy braise is pork tenderloin. After testing the recipe with chicken I found my guest preferred the recipe with the chicken. My guests found the chicken very moist and tasty. I serve the chicken with long grain and wild rice. I pour the sauce on the chicken as well as the rice,and I put a sprig of parsley on the dish for presentation. I have a few friends that love chicken. Also I wanted to use some of my traditional ingredients piri piri, and the pimento paste in the recipe. I have a passion for wines, and I love cooking with it. Estimated cost: $50.00
