City Chicken Made Easy

Ingredients

 

• 1lb (450 g) pork cubes or a pork-veal mix

 

Salt and pepper

 

1 tsp garlic powder

1 tsp paprika

1 cup breadcrumbs

2 eggs, beaten

1/2 cup flour

Wooden skewers (4-6

inches long)

Oil for frying

Optional: chicken broth for baking step

Instructions

 

1. Prepare the Skewers

 

Season meat cubes with

salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.

Thread 3-4 pieces of meat onto each wooden skewer to make “mock drumsticks.”

2. Bread the Skewers

 

Place flour in one bowl, beaten eggs in another, and breadcrumbs in a third.

Coat each skewer in flour.

Dip into beaten eggs.

Roll in breadcrumbs until fully coated.

3. Fry Until Golden

 

Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat.

Fry each skewer until golden brown on all sides (about 3-4 minutes per side).

Place on a wire rack to drain excess oil.

4. Optional Baking Step (Traditional Method)

 

To make them extra tender:

 

Preheat oven to 175°C (350°F).

Place browned skewers in a baking dish.

Add 1/2 cup chicken broth to the bottom of the dish (not over the skewers).

Cover with foil and bake for

30-40 minutes.

5. Serve

 

Serve warm with:

 

Mashed potatoes

Gravy

Green beans

Salad
