Congratulations, you met the goal of anyone writing about food: You made me hungry. I've lived in Rome 12 years and one of my girlfriend's best recipes is chicken with Gaeta olives. I cook a lot of pasta dishes with chicken. Maybe I've Americanized some but they're healthy and tasty. One reason Italians are thinner, despite pork being the predominant meat, is the processing is healthier. It has less fat. They serve less of it.
I can attest to the no chicken culture -- Italians - would general eat veal and that is my Italian Canadian family, we never were fans of chicken. However my mom did make nice chicken cutlets !
