Well, it is Sunday, and we are all going to Memaw's (and of course MOUF and his dear wife's) house for her birthday (May 7) dinner. Not sure whether we will have fish or chicken, but the whole family should be there. If I had my wish, I would like to eat Chicken and Cornbread Dressing. A girl can dream, can't she?
Chicken and Cornbread Dressing ( Memaw's)
1 chicken (roasting size)
Salt and pepper
Season chicken and place in a covered roasting pan. Bake 1 hour at 350 degrees F. Add dressing to pan and bake about 1 hour more. Remove cover and brown.
Dressing
4 cups cornbread crumbs
4 slices bread (white or brown)
1 onion (chopped)
4 ribs of celery (chopped)
2 eggs (beaten)
1 teaspoon poultry seasoning
Salt and pepper
2 cans of chicken broth
In a large bowl tear bread to small crumbs. Add onions, celery, eggs, seasoning, and chicken broth. Mix well. Pour around chicken in roasting pan and bake for 1 hour. Remove cover to brown.
Giblet Gravy
Boil livers and gizzards until tender. Chop into small pieces. Make gravy from chicken broth. Thicken with flour. Add chopped chicken pieces and 1 chopped boiled egg. Salt and pepper to taste. Serve over dressing.
(I would like a big plate of this right now. Forget the homemade Greek yoghurt and cereal for my breakfast.)
