Chicken Riggies

Cuisine of the United States

(recipe by P.A. Johnson)

This is a Utica, NY classic. It is well known throughout the greater Mohawk Valley and once a year there is a festival in honor of this dish called Riggiefest, held to benefit the YWCA of the Mohawk Valley. Here is a recipe based from a Mohawk Valley native: http://miocibo.com/2008/12/21/chicken-riggies/. Based on eating the dish hundreds of times at Joey's, listed in wikipedia as the birthplace!!!!
