Chicken Cassoulet image

I have not had this in years. It was a popular recipe in the mid 1970's, when I was such a young child (?). I found the recipe in a Better Homes and Gardens recipe booklet. It is a very hearty meal, definitely comfort food!!! It makes me wish for cold weather. Prep time includes simmering method for beans. I hope you enjoy!!!!
