Kirk Douglas Chicken In Dill Sauce
I love finding celebrity recipes in the paper! I haven't tried this one, i'm placing it here for safekeeping until i have the chance to do so. This comes from the chicago sun-times, in an article about passover memories. This recipe was borrowed from the 'celebrity kosher cookbook'. I hadn't known that kirk douglas was born issur danielovitch demsky, the son of poor russian immigrants.
