 | Jack Fasciano is President and Owner of Angelo's, a Wichita tradition for 45 years. Angelo's was founded in 1959 by Angelo and Anna Fasciano in Derby, KS. Jack is their oldest son and began in the business as a youngster doing dishes, grinding garlic and making pizza sauce and sausage. At the age of 12, Jack was Derby's first pizza delivery person. He delivered pizzas and other Italian dishes to friends and neighbors in a little red wagon. In 1960, the Fascianos opened their first 'real' restaurant at the corner of Harry and Hillside in Wichita, at one time having four locations in Wichita and one in Hutchinson. Over the years Jack has worked along side his father, mother, aunts, uncles and cousins perfecting recipes and maintaining the family tradition of wonderful 'Southern Italian Comfort' food. Today, Jack keeps that tradition alive in a quiet neighborhood at 1930 S. Oliver. If the Italian aromas don't bring you in, you can't miss the sign with Lion on top. You can contact Jack at (316) 682-1473. |

Chicken Cacciatore
: Got a good chicken cacciatore recipe?
ANSWER: I have made several over the years. Here is one of my favorites.We use fennel seeds in several of our dishes, and this recipe allows for it as well. While the recipe calls for skinless chicken breasts, you may want the additional flavor from the skin. If you do, brown the pieces in a skillet before putting them in the casserole.
