One of Utica's most famous recipes has a storied history. Today, the dish has been duplicated and reinvented over in over in cities outside Utica-Rome, like Manhattan, Boston, Buffalo and Albany.
Utica’s legendary Chicken Riggies dish is a ‘one of a kind’ in the Greater Utica area and it’s getting more and more popular across Upstate New York. Today, there are all different variations of the classic Utica dish; but, there’s only one original recipe. Where did it originate?
Utica's Chicken Riggies dish is now famous beyond the Mohawk Valley. I've seen the Utica Riggies dish on menus in New York, Boston, and Myrtle Beach, to name a few, and it's now a regular dish on Italian menus in Syracuse.
