KENT'S CHICKEN BOG FOR A CROWD

If you're looking for a crowd-pleasing chicken and rice dinner that can feed an army, your search ends here. Chicken bog, which shares a history with pilau, is a simple South Carolina staple that has stood the test of time. This big-batch chicken bog recipe comes from Kent Huggins, a Carolina native who has perfected his family's technique over decades. What sets Kent's version apart? His chicken bog (which uses a strict 3:1 stock-to-rice ratio) is cooked in the oven. This eliminates the temptation to stir the rice and ensures a perfectly boggy texture.

Time 3h25m

Yield 20

Number Of Ingredients 7

10 (8 ounce) bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
3 (16 oz) rings smoked sausage, sliced
15 cups water
3 tablespoons salt, or to taste
3 teaspoons ground black pepper, divided, or more to taste
5 cups parboiled long-grain white rice
1 tablespoon hot sauce, or to taste

Steps:

  • Combine chicken thighs and sausage in a large stockpot. Add water, salt, and 1 teaspoon of pepper; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until chicken is no longer pink in the center, about 2 hours. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Remove chicken and sausage from the pot. Reserve the cooking liquid (stock). Skin and debone chicken once cooled. Transfer chicken and sausage to a large roasting pan. Sprinkle with remaining pepper. Cover with rice and stock.
  • Roast in the preheated oven until liquid is absorbed, 60 to 90 minutes. Serve hot with hot sauce to taste.

CHICKEN BOG

I am not sure of the origin of this recipe. It is a cross between a casserole and a stew: chock-full of chicken, sausage, rice and onion. A really good cold-weather comfort food. When you're feeling 'bogged' down, make Chicken Bog to cheer up! This recipe is what is called 'Low Country cooking.' It is a term used in the coastal regions of South Carolina. Chicken Bog is even served at restaurants in South Carolina along with other local favorites.

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 cups water
1 tablespoon salt
1 onion, chopped
1 (3 pound) whole chicken
3 ½ cups chicken broth
1 cup long-grain white rice
½ pound smoked sausage of your choice, sliced
2 tablespoons Italian-style seasoning
2 cubes chicken bouillon

Steps:

  • Place water, salt and onion in a large pot. Add chicken and bring all to a boil; cook until chicken is tender, about 1 hour.
  • Remove chicken from pot and let cool. Remove skin and bones and chop remaining meat into bite size pieces.
  • Skim off fat from cooking liquid and measure 3 1/2 cups of this chicken broth into a 6-quart saucepan. Add rice, chicken pieces, sausage, herb seasoning and bouillon to this saucepan. Cook all together for 30 minutes; let come to a boil, then reduce heat to low, keeping pan covered the whole time. If mixture is too watery or juicy, cook over medium low heat, uncovered, until it reaches the desired consistency. Stir often while cooking.

Tips:

  • Choose the right rice: Medium or long grain rice is best for chicken bog. It will absorb the flavorful broth and cook evenly.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed pot: This will help prevent the rice from sticking to the bottom of the pot and burning.
  • Sear the chicken before adding it to the pot: This will help to brown the chicken and give it a more flavorful crust.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: This will add color, flavor, and nutrients to the dish. Some good options include onions, celery, carrots, bell peppers, and okra.
  • Add some heat: If you like spicy food, you can add a cayenne pepper or two to the pot. You can also use hot sauce or chili powder.
  • Don't overcook the rice: The rice should be cooked through but still have a little bit of a bite to it.
  • Serve with your favorite sides: Chicken bog is often served with cornbread, mashed potatoes, or coleslaw.

Conclusion:

Chicken bog is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It is a great way to use up leftover chicken, and it is also a good option for a quick and easy meal. With a little planning, you can easily make chicken bog at home. So next time you are looking for a new and exciting recipe to try, give chicken bog a try. You won't be disappointed!
