The first time we ate Chicken Vesuvio, Mike and I were in Chicago on tour and we discovered this wonderfully fragrant and incredibly rich chicken dish in a little Italian restaurant on Rush Street. We were completely smitten and probably returned to indulge in Chicken Vesuvio a dozen times over two months! The chicken was loaded with flavor, the potatoes roasted golden and there were soft pieces of garlic to slather on each bite. Heaven!
