Categories     Main Course

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/2 lbs city chicken (pork or veal pieces cut into cubes)
salt and pepper
2 eggs, beaten
1 cup seasoned bread crumbs
1/2 teaspoon paprika
2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup chicken stock, broth or water
1-2 tablespoons flour

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Add your eggs to a shallow bowl and beat
  • In a separate bowl add your breadcrumbs, paprika and Parmesan cheese.
  • If your pork and veal are not already placed on skewers, do so by alternating pork and veal pieces.
  • Sprinkle the chunks of meat with salt and pepper.
  • Dip the skewered meat in the egg and then the bread crumbs. Set aside and finish the rest of the meat.
  • Heat your skillet to medium high and once hot, add your oil.
  • Once the oil is hot, place your meat in the pan and turn the skillet down to medium. Brown skewered meat on all sides. About 2-3 minutes on each side.
  • Once the meat is browned, place in a baking dish and cover with aluminum.
  • Bake for 20 minutes or until the pork is no longer pink inside.
  • To make the gravy turn the skillet on to medium heat.
  • Add the broth or water to the skillet and break up all the browned bits.
  • Add the flour a little at a time and whisk well so there are no lumps.
  • Pour over cooked meat. (this did not make much gravy for me but it was tasty.)

Provided by insanelygood

Categories     Chicken     Recipes

Time 1h15m

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 pounds boneless pork, cut into 1 1/2-inch cubes
Salt and pepper, to taste
Seasoned salt, to taste
4 eggs
3 tablespoons milk
2 cups Italian seasoned bread crumbs
2 cups water
2 cups vegetable oil, for frying

Steps:

  • 14 (4-inch) skewers
  • (9x13-inch) baking dish
  • Wire rack
  • Directions
  • Thread 2 to 3 pork cubes onto the skewers. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and seasoned salt on all sides. Set skewers aside.
  • In a shallow bowl, whisk together eggs and milk. In a separate shallow bowl, pour in the seasoned bread crumbs. Set a wire rack in the baking dish. Pour water into the dish, making sure it doesn't touch the wire rack.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Preheat vegetable oil in a deep-fryer or large, heavy-bottom saucepan to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Dip the skewers into the egg mixture, then in the bread crumbs. Repeat the step so each skewer gets coated twice.
  • Gently lay the skewers into the deep-fryer and cook until golden brown, about 3 minutes per side.
  • Place cooked skewers on the wire rack. Cover the dish with aluminum foil.
  • Bake the dish for 20 minutes, or until the pork is no longer pink in the center. Remove the foil and bake for 10 more minutes to crisp up the crumb coating. Serve and enjoy!
