I don't blame you for not sacrificing your Armagnac for this recipe, especially since you nearly lost it to airport security!

However, on one of our trips returning to Philly, one of our bags<br />was misplaced. (the airport delivered it at 2 AM) but that was the bag with all my brandy. It figures. I love the color<br />of you chicken, so delicious looking.
