Week #5 ... City Chicken

This weeks meal choices are easy, easy! The only recipe, in my opinion, that is time consuming would be the City Chicken. I have no idea where this recipe came from, I don't really know why we even call it City Chicken. Since I was young, this was my choice for a birthday dinner. Even now it's still a favorite of mine. The recipe for City Chicken is found below.

City Chicken Serves 4 - 6

6 pork chops, boneless or 1 small pork loin; cut into 1" or 1 1/2" cubes
short skewers / 12 - 14
1 egg, beaten
1/4 c. milk
1 - 2 c. Italian style breadcrumbs
oil for frying

1. Cut pork into cubes, place 4 - 6 cubes onto a skewer, set to the side until all skewers are used.

2. Heat oil in frying pan, you need enough oil so that 1/2 of the pork skewer will be in oil.

3. Into (1) shallow dish, place beaten egg and milk, mix together. In another shallow dish, place breadcrumbs.

4. Roll the skewer of pork into the breadcrumbs, the egg wash and back into the breadcrumbs; place into the hot oil. Brown the city chicken on both sides. Remove after meat is brown; place into a 9 x 13" baking dish, lined with aluminum foil, sprayed with cooking spray.

5. Bake in a 350 degree oven for 35 - 40 minutes. We serve the City Chicken with a salad, corn, and fried red potatoes (hey, if you're going to eat friend City Chicken, why not add the fried potatoes too). ;)
