Ruth Halpor's Swiss Chicken Supreme

Irene Wheat, the DSC at Brighton Gardens of Austin, Texas, has been cooking since she was nine years old.  She earned a bachelor of science degree in nutrition from Texas Tech University and has been working in kitchens for 20 years.

A longtime resident of Brighton Gardens, Ruth Halpor gave Irene this recipe for Swiss Chicken Supreme and showed her, step-by-step, how to prepare it.  When Irene put it on the menu, the residents greeted it enthusiastically.

Last year, Mrs. Halpor passed away, but her Swiss Chicken Supreme remains a favorite.  “Every time we make this dish, we remember Mrs. Halpor,” Irene says.
