Chicken bog is a cross between a casserole and a stew. It's chock-full of chicken, sausage, rice, and onions, and it's great comfort food when it's cold outside. When you're feeling "bogged" down, make some chicken bog to cheer yourself up! This recipe is what's called "Lowcountry cooking," a term used in the coastal regions of South Carolina, where chicken bog is often served in restaurants.
