Want something, fun, New, Exciting on your thanksgiving or Christmas table?

Try this African ballotine (chicken boned, stuffed, and rolled into a bundle)

This is a great make-ahead dish – do it the day before and roast the day of. If you have a roasting pan that is great! if not, place on top of a cookie sheet and place a pan underneath to collect the dripping. It is Ghetto Fabulous but who cares! It does the job.
