Outstanding Citizen Rosemary Chicken

Grilled chicken basted with butter (of course), white wine and rosemary. I love rosemary, it is my favorite herb. Now, I usually pan roast the chicken with olive oil,  garlic, wine and rosemary and it is delicious, but I did it Alice's way tonight. I buy butter almost every trip to the store these days, it seems. I served it with fresh pappardelle pasta and pepperonata, which is an italian dish of sauteed yellow and orange peppers with garlic in a crushed tomato sauce. Most yummy.

Episode Note: "The Hero" Peter gets his 15 minutes of fame when he saves a girl, Tina Spencer, from a falling shelf at Driscoll's Toy Shop. The girl's mother calls the Daily Chronicle to do a story on Peter and his heroics. At first, Peter expresses appropriate modesty at all of the accolades from his siblings, parents and Alice, and even when he makes the front page of the paper with the headline "Boy Hero". But as soon as he starts believing his own press, his friends and family turn on him. Peter quickly finds out how fleeting public admiration can be. The kids get tired of  Peter's exaggerated story telling of his heroism and the situation comes to a head when the Chronicle bestows upon him its Oustanding Citizen Award (must have been a slow news week) and a check for $50. Oblivious to his un-admiring fans, Peter decides spend the money on a party for himself- one which no one, not even his siblings attend. Mike takes the tough love approach, saying he needed to learn his lesson. But Carol, the nurturer, intervenes and gets Greg, Marcia, Jan, Bobby, Cindy, Mrs. Spencer and Tina to surprise him, saving the party and Peter's fragile ego.  Peter finds out the hard way that fame is fickle food.
