cackling chicken leg kicking chili !
My "cackling" good chicken chili, with pinto beans and barley. a revised 1949 recipe from mom's ole recipe box. I revised it for today's tastes. With no beef and added a few new ingredients for a wonderful new South West Flavor, with chicken legs, and barley. A healthy alternative. And finger licking good!
