Our Family Tradition Chicken And Dressing Dee Dees Recipes

Steps:

• 1. Preheat ovent to 325 degrees.
• 2. Cook (boil) chicken breasts until done; save 1 cup broth. (For added flavor, I added 1/2 cup of chopped celery, 1/2 cup chopped onion and 3 chicken bouilon cubes to this broth) Freeze remaining broth to use in other dishes.
• 3. Remove chicken from broth and cool enough to handle. Pull chicken off bones; cut in bite size pieces; set aside.
• 4. In the mean time, bake your favorite cornbread. After baking cornbread, let cool. Crumble up corn bread fine and pour melted margarine over corn bread. Mix well; set aside. NOTE 2: if cornbread is warm just add butter that is at room temperature to the warm crumbs and stir to combine. NOTE 2: I made a 10-inch skillet of cornbread and took out 2 slices to serve with our meal.
• 5. To the cut up chicken add 1 cup chicken broth and both cans of soup. NOTE: If you don't have cream of celery, use 2 cans of cream of chicken.
• 6. In a greased casserole dish place a little more than half (I used about 2/3's of this mixture) of the corn bread mixture; spoon meat mixture on top of cornbread mixture. Add boiled eggs if desired, and top with remaining corn bread mixture.
• 7. Bake at 325 degrees until bubbly. Ovens vary so start watching around 30 to 35 minutes. It took my dish 45 minutes. The last 2 minutes I turned the broiler on to give the top of casserole a toasty finish.
• 8. NOTE: I served mashed potatoes with Lynn Socko's https://www.justapinch.com/recipe/lynn-socko/chicken-gravy/quick-easy-healthy-gravy, peas I canned this summer and a slice of cornbread...YUM!

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• In a large saucepan, bring the chicken broth to a boil.
• In a large bowl combine the crumbled cornbread and biscuits. Pour in 3 cups of boiling broth; cover and let stand.
• Meanwhile, heat margarine in a medium skillet over medium heat. Saute celery and onions until tender. Stir into cornbread mixture.
• To the cornbread mixture add the remaining broth, eggs, sage and black pepper. Pour into a large iron skillet or roasting pan.
• Bake in preheated oven for 1 hour, or until set and well browned.

Steps:

• In a Dutch oven, heat the vegetable oil and sugar over medium-high heat. Add the sazon seasoning and the bouillon and cook until the sugar lightly browns. Add the chicken and let it fry, stirring it around to get all the sides browned, about 10 to 15 minutes. Stir in the tomato paste, cumin and chili powder. Add water to just cover the top of the chicken. Let the water come to a boil and stir to make sure the tomato paste is combined. Taste the water for salt*. Cook the chicken stirring occasionally, until tender, about 45 to 60 minutes. Remove the chicken to a serving platter and coat with the cooking sauce from the pan. Serve with Habichuela.
• In a medium saucepan over medium heat, add the oil and bacon. Stir in the garlic, bell pepper, squash, tomato paste, bouillon cube, and water. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat, cover with a lid and simmer for about 10 minutes. Add the beans and simmer for another 10 minutes. Serve over white rice, garnished with cilantro.
• In a medium pot, bring the water to a boil over high heat and add the oil and salt. Stir in the rice, cover with a lid and let cook over medium-low heat for about 20 minutes. Lower the heat for the last 5 minutes. The rice should be soft and fluffy.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Put the cornbread cubes, ciabatta cubes, carrots, celery and onion on a baking sheet, drizzle on the oil and toss together with your hands. Nestle the chicken thighs skin-side up among the bread and vegetables. Mix together the salt, pepper, sage and thyme in a small bowl and sprinkle it all over the chicken, bread and vegetables. Dot the top with the butter.
• Roast for 15 minutes, then remove and stir the bread and vegetables with a wooden spoon, coating them in the butter. Do not disturb the chicken. Return the baking sheet to the oven and continue roasting until the chicken is completely cooked and the skin is golden and crisp, 25 to 30 minutes. Stir the bread and veggies once more and serve!
• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Stir the cornmeal, flour, baking powder and salt in a bowl to combine. Measure the buttermilk and milk in a measuring cup and add the egg. Stir together with a fork. Add the baking soda and stir. Pour the milk mixture into the dry ingredients. Stir with a fork until combined.
• Melt 1/4 cup of the shortening in a small pan on the stovetop or in the microwave in a small bowl. Slowly add the melted shortening to the batter, stirring until just combined.
• In a cast-iron skillet, melt the remaining 2 tablespoons shortening over medium heat. Pour the batter into the hot skillet and spread to even out the surface. (The batter should sizzle.) Cook on the stovetop for 1 minute, then bake until the top is golden brown and the edges are crispy, 20 to 25 minutes.

Steps:

• Combine melted margarine, chicken broth and hot water.
• In a large bowl, combine the remaining ingredients.
• Pour the water mixture over the crumb mixture and stir.
• Spray crock pot with Pam, then spoon stuffing into it.
• Cook on low for 5-6 hours, scraping the sides and stirring once, half way through.
• Check the moisture once or twice, add a little hot water if necessary, but it should be nice and moist as is.
