Southern Cornbread Dressed-Up Chicken image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 1h40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 strips thick-sliced bacon
2 large onions, thinly sliced
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 cup crumbled prepared cornbread
2 cups baby spinach
1 cup grated sharp cheddar cheese
1/4 cup pecan pieces
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons dijon mustard
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
2 chicken halves, backbone removed (about 1 1/2 pounds each)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 tablespoon honey

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Cook the bacon in a large ovenproof skillet over medium heat until crisp, about 7 minutes; transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate. Add the onions to the pan with 1 teaspoon salt and some pepper; cook over low heat until tender, about 5 minutes, scraping up the browned bits with a wooden spoon. Set the skillet aside.
  • Combine the cornbread, spinach, cheese, pecans, garlic, 1 tablespoon of the mustard, 1/2 teaspoon salt and the nutmeg in a medium bowl. Crumble in the bacon and toss gently. Stuff the mixture between the skin and flesh of each chicken half, making sure to cover the breast and thigh.
  • Place the chicken halves skin-side up on top of the onions in the skillet. Combine the butter and honey in a bowl and brush all over the chicken; season with salt. Roast in the oven until a thermometer inserted in the thigh registers 165, about 50 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a cutting board; let rest for 10 minutes. Whisk the remaining 1 tablespoon mustard into the onion mixture and set aside. Carve each chicken half and serve on a platter with the onions.

Place chicken, gizzards and livers in large pot with 2 to 3 quarts water; add salt, pepper, and 1/3 cup of each chopped onions and celery to the pot Cover the pot with enough water just above the chicken. Cook on high heat until pot start to boil. Reduce heat and continue boiling about 45 to 60 minutes or until almost done. The gizzards and livers will get done first. Remove them. Continue cooking until chicken is almost done; remove from pot. Set aside. Keep chicken broth. This is what makes the dressing moist and delicious. Celery & Onion Broth: 2 green onions, whites & green parts, chopped ¾ - 1 cup of each, chopped - celery and onions 1 stick of butter Enough water or chicken broth to cover the onions, celery Prepare Celery Onion Broth: In a small pot add stick of butter and enough water or broth to cover the celery and onion.

Add salt, pepper, sage & country style bread crumbs, poultry seasoning, sage, cooked celery and onions, chopped boiled eggs and 4 beaten eggs, shredded boiled chicken, cream of chicken soup and mix well. Add a cup or so of broth to start; Mix well until dressing is the desired texture. If dressing seems dry, add more broth until dressing is the texture that you want. For a dryer mixture, use less broth, for a moist mixture, use more broth. Set aside or cover and keep in the refrigerator. FINAL PROCESS - Can be done the day of serving If the dressing looks dry, I poke holes all over the top, 2 knuckles deep and pour chicken broth over the top. Bake at 350°F Covered for 1 and 15 minutes. Remove the foil and continue to bake for 15 minutes longer or until it is done and the top of the dressing is crisp. Serve hot. Yield: 12 or more servings depending how much you serve yourself. NOTE: I use the large metal throw away pans when making this. I do not use glass bakeware. Cooking times will change according to the size baking dish you are using. IMPORTANT TIPS TO REMEMBER 1. When using poultry and sage seasoning, use according to your taste. You may want to add more seasonings or less, just be careful not to add too much-- it will overpower the natural flavors. Seasonings make or break the flavor in corn bread dressing. 2. Make the dressing a day before serving. This gives the seasonings time to spread flavor throughout. Just make sure you cover and store in the refrigerator until ready to use. 3. For more flavor, cut up chicken gizzards and/or livers in dressing before baking. 4. Reserve some broth for left over dressing. Store broth in the refrigerator.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, flavorful ingredients will make a big difference in the final dish. Look for high-quality chicken broth, cornbread, and vegetables.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: Don't just stick to the traditional celery, onion, and carrots. Try adding other vegetables like mushrooms, bell peppers, or zucchini.
  • Season the dressing well: Don't be afraid to use plenty of herbs and spices. Some good options include sage, thyme, rosemary, garlic, and pepper.
  • Don't overcook the dressing: The dressing should be cooked until it is just set, but not dry. Overcooked dressing will be tough and crumbly.
  • Let the dressing rest before serving: This will allow the flavors to meld and the dressing to set.

Chicken and cornbread dressing is a delicious and versatile dish that can be served as a side dish or main course. It is perfect for a special occasion or a weeknight meal. With a few simple tips, you can make a chicken and cornbread dressing that is sure to impress your family and friends.
