MOM'S CITY CHICKEN RECIPE

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.

• 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.)

Steps:

• Thread 2 or 3 cubes of pork onto each skewer. Sprinkle each skewer on all sides with salt, black pepper, and seasoned salt, and set the skewers aside.
• Whisk eggs and milk together in a bowl. Place the seasoned bread crumbs in another bowl. Pour 2 cups of water into a 9x13-inch baking dish with a wire rack set in the dish, and set the dish aside.
• Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Dip each skewer of pork into the egg mixture, then dip in crumbs; dip the skewers a second time into egg mixture and then crumbs. Gently lay the skewers, a few at a time, into the hot oil, and brown until the coating is crisp and golden brown, about 3 minutes per side. Set the fried skewers aside while you finish the rest. Once the skewers are all browned, set them on the wire rack in the baking dish. Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil.
• Carefully place the baking dish with the skewers into the preheated oven, and bake until hot and no longer pink in the center, about 20 minutes. Remove the foil, and bake 10 minutes more to dry out the crumb coating. Serve hot.
