Bobby’s Chicken Provençal

A taste of late summer, with tomatoes, herbs and plenty of good sauce.

Bobby Graham

September is one of our favorite times of year in the kitchen.Summer isn’t quite over, fall is beginning to make itself known, and gardens and local farm stands are overflowing with some of the best tomatoes of the season.
