Chicken Kiev. Chicken Divan. When a colleague got this for a potluck I misheard it as Chicken Divine.
Spaetzle reminds me of a sweet dish that my neighbor made during my childhood. She cooked rolled wheat dough tortillas cut into diamond shape in water with sugar and cinnamon. It reminds me of Kubba from the Iraqi cookbook too.
