I grew up in western Pa. and you could buy a package of beef and veal with the sticks in all the grocery stores. Loved City Chicken. Thanks for the memories. I tried making once but they just weren't quite as good.

I've never heard of these before. But, they sound like they might be pretty good.

Add water to the baking dish and if you want to , cover with some onions
is that what you were wondering ? |
So did I---grow up in western PA, that is. City chicken was the big treat when I stayed at my grandmother's house in Transfer, PA near Sharon each summer. You used to be able to buy it at the meat markets, I think, but I haven't heard of it in years and elsewhere in the country, no one's heard of it!

I remember those. We called them "City Chicken"
My step mother used to make them. She was a great cook. She used veal and pork. Seems like she dipped them on egg also. |
Worked for a caterer many yrs ago --Ukranian/ Croation group.
I had never had this "City Chicken " on a screwer before. Made with pork/veal, egged and breaded then piled high in a roast pan to bake. Commonly served at weddings but made at home also. |
sorry double post

But the one I am thinking of was chunks of meat (maybe pork and veal or something) on a wooden stick, dipped in egg and coated with what I seem to remember some type of dry soup mix (ranch or blue cheese) and bread crumbs and they were then pan fried. Does anyone have an idea how they were made, the second verison. Thanks We called it city chicken. Veal and Pork |
