Clara Bow’s Chicken Chartreuse

“I wanna go home, I miss my cook”
I am loving Clara this week. She is keeping me sane during the insanity that is involved in preparing 9 seperate lectures for the upcoming cruise. My brain is ADDLED and I feel like doing a Clara and just sitting down and playing poker with my cook.

I made Clara’s chicken dish for the new beau as a note under the recipe in the Photoplay book said, “try it on the boyfriend”. I made little individual portions in ramekins as I couldn’t find a circular ring mould (!) He seemed to like it and said in a broad Jamaican accent “Rass, that’s good” so I guess that’s the seal of approval.
