Default WANTED: Recipe for Chicken ala Drennan, circa 1960

Help? I've been looking for a recipe called "Chicken ala Drennan" for
years -- it was a favorite of my childhood. It wasn't in my long-deceased
Mom's recipe folder, but I remember she clipped it out of a large metro
newspaper.

Basics we

Chicken legs & thighs, dredged in a spice mixture including chili powder.
Pan fry until brown, then simmer in white wine, some additional spices (?)
Degrease & reduce sauce, finish with parsley.
Serve over 50/50 mixture white/wild rice.

Problem is the seasoning mixture -- I've never been able to reproduce it!
And I've not found it anywhere on the web...

So, anyone have the recipe?

Lacking that, can you make suggestions on the other spices to use? Flavor
was typical French in spite of the (slight) addition of the chili powder....

Thanks!

Steve
