Chicken Pudding Recipes

Steps:

• Combine 1/3 cup of the flour, 1/4 tsp salt, and the pepper.
• Coat prepared chicken pieces and fry in the oil over moderate heat for 4 minutes on each side or until browned.
• Add stock and bring to a boil. Lower the heat, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes. Transfer to a buttered 13"X9"X3", reserving the stock.
• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• In a large bowl, whisk the egg and egg whites. Whisk in the milk, 1 tbl of butter, and the remaining salt. Then, whisk in 1 cup of the flour until smooth. Pour over the chicken and bake, uncovered for 15 minutes. Reduce the temp to 350 degrees F and bake for 20 minutes longer or until the topping is puffed and golden.
• Meanwhile, in a medium size saucepan, heat the remaining 2 tbl of butter over medium heat. Add the remaining 1/3 cup of flour and cook until bubbly. Whisk in 3 1/2 cups of the reserved cooking liquid and bring to a boil. Lower heat and simmer for 6 minutes stirring frequently. Stir in parsley and thyme.
• Drizzle about 1/2 the gravy over the chicken. Serve with remaining gravy on the side.

Steps:

• Joint the chickens, splitting the breasts (and removing backbone), and separating the drumsticks and thighs (you can remove skin, if you prefer); reserve the giblets, necks, and backbones.
• In a large, heavy pot, put the water, reserved giblets, necks, and backbones, and the celery, onion, parsley sprigs, oregano, salt, and pepper; simmer on medium heat for 40 minutes, then strain solids from liquid, discard solids, and reserve liquid broth.
• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
• Make the pudding topping: in a bowl, mix together flour, salt, milk, and beaten eggs, and stir until smooth.
• Prepare the fry coating: place the 1/4 cup flour, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper into a large Ziplock bag, then add a few pieces of chicken and shake to coat well; repeat with all pieces.
• Melt 2 tablespoons butter and 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large frying pan over medium high heat, then sauté the coated chicken pieces until browned; reserve drippings.
• Placed the browned chicken pieces into a large round casserole dish.
• Take chicken drippings in pan over heat and thicken with 1 tablespoon flour, then gradually add 2 cups of the reserved broth while whisking to make gravy, simmer while whisking to thicken, then add the chopped parsley (if gravy is not thickening as you'd like, sprinkle in a bit more flour - a teaspoon at a time - and simmer to desired texture).
• Pour the gravy over the chicken pieces in the casserole.
• Spread the prepared Yorkshire Pudding batter evenly over the top.
• Bake in a hot 450 degree F oven for 15 minutes; reduce temperature to 350 degrees F and bake for an additional 20 to 25 minutes.
• Note: when chicken is almost done baking, you can make more gravy (as much as you'd like) with 2 tablespoons butter, 2 tablespoons flour, and some of the remaining chicken broth to the texture/thickening you'd like.

Steps:

• Combine first 6 ingredients and water to cover in a large Dutch oven.
• Bring to a boil over medium-high heat; reduce heat, and simmer 1 hour or until tender.
• Remove chicken and cool.
• Pour 6 cups broth through a wire-mesh strainer into a large bowl, discarding solids.
• Reserve remaining broth for later use.
• Whisk 6 tablespoons butter, bouillon granules, and poultry seasoning into strained broth until smooth.
• Set aside to cool.
• Cut shortening into flour with a pastry blender or fork until crumbly.
• Add milk, stirring just until dry ingredients are moistened.
• Spread dough to a 1/2-inch thickness on a lightly greased baking sheet, forming 1 large hoecake (I call it a"biscuit").
• Bake at 400° for 25 minutes or until golden brown.
• Cool on wire rack; break into pieces.
• Skin, bone, and coarsely chop chicken.
• Layer chicken and hoecake pieces in a lightly greased 13-x 9-inch baking dish.
• Whisk together chicken broth mixture and eggs; pour evenly over chicken and hoecake pieces.
• Stir together cracker crumbs and 1 tablespoon melted butter; sprinkle evenly over top of chicken mixture.
• Bake at 375° for 30 minutes or until golden brown and set.
• Let stand 10 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Combine first 6 ingredients, 1tsp salt and 1/4tsp pepper in a dutch oven; add water to cover. Bring to a boil; cover and simmer 1 1/2 hour. Remove chicken from broth; cool. Strain broth and set aside.
• 2. Remove chicken from bone; shred and place in a 10-inch cast-iron skillet. Pour 1/2 cup broth over chicken. Set remaining broth aside.
• 3. Combine eggs, milk, 1 cup flour, 1/2tsp salt and 1/4 cup butter; beat until smooth. Pour over chicken in skillet.
• 4. Bake at 375 degrees for 1 hour. Cool slightly and cut into wedges.
• 5. While puddings is baking, cook remaining broth over high heat until reduced to 2 cups. Stir in 1/2 cup flour. Add parsley, 2TBS butter, 1/2tsp salt and 1/4tsp pepper. Cook over medium heat until thickened and bubbly. Spoon gravy over pudding.
