Flying Jacob (Swedish: flygande Jacob/Jakob[needs IPA])[1] is a Swedish casserole composed of chicken, cream, chilli sauce, bananas, roasted peanuts and bacon.[2] The dish is baked in an oven and is usually served with rice and a salad.
The dish was invented by Ove Jacobsson who worked in the air freight industry, hence the name.[3] The recipe was first published in Swedish cooking magazine Allt om mat in 1976.[2][4]
