                 1                tsp  garlic powder
                 1                tsp  oregano
                 1                tsp  sage
                 2               tsps  pepper
                 2              tbsps  sugar
                                       hot sauce -- to taste
                                       water -- as needed

               Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Chop the onion.  Place in 3-quart
               casserole/dutch oven type pot (the kind with a lid that can go on top of
               the stove or into the  oven).  Add the vegetable oil, leek soup, 1/2 c.
               wine and water.  Whisk.  Add bay leaves and salt.  Add the chicken
               breasts.  Cover and bake for 40 minutes.

               Cook rice if you haven't done that already.

               After baking, remove chicken breasts, cut them up into bitesize pieces,
               and put them back into the pot.  Add the remaining ingredients, mix well,
               and simmer over medium low heat, stirring well now and then, for about 20
               minutes.  As the mixture heats, you will probably need 2 or 3 cups of
               water to get a stew-like consistency.

               Add more salt or pepper to taste, along with your favorite Hot Sauce.  You
