1 BUNCH OF SCALLIONS, CHOPPED
6 CHOPPED GARLIC CLOVES
SAUTE A FEW MINUTES.

ADD:
1 TABLESOON JACK DANIELS

LET THE LIQUIDS COOK OFF FOR  MINUTES, THEN RETURN CHICKEN TO THE POT.  ADD 5 CARROTS,PEELED & CUT IN HALF.  TOP THE CHICKEN WITH HALF A LEMON, SLICED, FRESH ROSEMARY & THYME.  COVER THE POT AND COOK AT THE LOWEST SIMMER FOR 90 MINS-2 HOURS.  SERVE OVER BROWN RICE!
