KFC set to unleash bunless Double Down sandwich on America
First there was the Double Big Mac. Then came the Baconator. Now KFC is triumphantly laying claim to the World's meatiest and - in our opinion - most nutritionally-challenged sandwich. Their recipe? Two strips of bacon, two slices of cheese and a healthy dollop of the Colonel's Sauce all sandwiched between (insert drum roll please) two thick and juicy filets of deep-fried chicken. That's right, this sandwich is so serious it doesn't need a bun.
The whole story.
How long before the U.S. government starts spying on KFC patrons so as to disqualify them from health insurance?

Super Duper Fantastic Big Prize Giveaway Contest!
Last night, from the carcass of the unfortunate chicken I had roasted two days prior, I made a soup that was simply delizioso. I thought it would be fun if all my loyal reader guessed what kind of pasta I put in it. Now, what's a contest without a prize? To the first person who correctly identifies the style of pasta that graced my soup, I'll send out $3.87--U.S., of course. Only one guess per e-mail address, please. Multiples will be disregarded. Send your guess to "videosbyvinny@hotmail.com" or click on my profile. You must have a PayPal account to receive your prize. You can register here for free and it's free to use (for personal use). I'll announce the winner as soon as we have one...or a lack of one, four days from the publish time of this posting--the official closing of the contest. Good luck to all three of you!

My Recipe: Chicken with Rice
Vinny’s Chicken with Rice
Ingredients:
6-8 chicken wings
1 3/4 cups Italian style rice
1 1/4 tsp. salt
pepper, parsley, parmesan cheese
Yield: four servings
Directions:
1. Fill a medium-sized pot with about 7 cups of water and bring to a boil. While waiting…
2. Wash chicken wings.
3. Cut the wing tips off.
4. Place wings in the pot.
5. When it reaches a boil, reduce to a simmer. Be careful it doesn't overflow. The fat will "foam up", but if simmering slowly enough, it will dissipate. Do NOT remove the foam. It provides much of the taste. While waiting...
6. Lightly rinse excess starch from rice.
7. After about 30 minutes, remove the chicken and spray with cold water. Do not discard the water in the pot.
8. Carefully separate the meat from the fat, bones and cartilage.
9. Ladle out about one third of the water in the pot and set aside (you may need some or all of it).
10. Place the meat back in the pot.
11. Place a chicken bouillon cube (or like powder) into the pot.
12. Put about 2 to 2 1/2 cups of rice into the pot.
13. Season with salt, pepper and parsley.
14. Simmer covered until rice is cooked, stirring occasionally.
15. Ladle out into bowls, sprinkle with more pepper, parsley and parmesan cheese if you have it.
16. Serve with garlic bread or bread sticks.
Notes:
1. If most of the water dissipates before the rice is fully cooked, stir in a bit of the reserve as you go along. The contents should be free of water when it's done.
2. Parmesan cheese is indispensable in an Italian household. I use it in many dishes--pastas and soups, for instance.
