Flygande Jakob or flying Jacob is a Swedish casserole made with a combination of chicken, chili sauce, bananas, bacon, cream, and roasted peanuts. The dish is baked in an oven, then served with rice and a green salad on the side. This unusual dish was invented by Ove Jakobsson, a man who worked in the air freight industry, hence the name of the dish. His original recipe was first published in 1976 in a Swedish cooking magazine called Allt om mat, and back then, unlike today, the chicken was supposed to be seasoned with Italian salad seasoning. Nowadays, the dish is popular in the country because it is quick and easy to make.
