tblspns butter, 1/2 cup white wine, and 1/4 cup water to the pan.
Cover the chicken with buttered paper and roast it in a moderate oven
(325 degrees) for 1-1/2 hours. Remove the paper and conrinue roasting
the chicken, basting it occasionally, until it is very tender, about
30 minutes.
Saute 1 cup chopped mushroooms, the chicken liver and heart,
chopped, 2 tablespoons chopped pimiento, 1/4 cup blanched almonds,
and 2 onions, chopped fine, in butter until the mixture is golden and
hot. Add it to 3 cups freshly cooked hot rice and keep the rice warm.

Skim all but 1 tablespoon of fat from the roasting pan. Over direct

tomato paste and a pinch of thyme. Gradually add 1 cup chicken stock
and cook the sauce, stirring constantly, until it is smooth. Bring it
just to a boil, add 2 tablespoons Sherry and salt to taste, and
strain it.
Carve the chicken and arrange the slices in the center of a large
heated platter. Surround the chicken with the rice and garnish the
rice with 4 tomatoes, peeled, seeded, and chopped, and sauteed gently
in butter with 1/4 cup raisins. Surround the platter with 4 peeled
apples, cut in quarters and sauteed in butter, and 4 bananas, halved
and browned in butter. Serve the sauce separately.
