I love this dish!! I remember the first time my mother made it for us. I was about 12 years old. I love to serve this with Haluski and my husband likes it over buttered noodles with the thick flavorful sauce that it makes while cooking. Either way, it is delicious! ---- This is comfort food to us! Here is some history on City...

Time 55m

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 lb boneless pork pieces 1 inch by 1 1/2 inch cubes
8-10 small skewers (6 inches long)
3/4 c flour
salt and pepper
3 - 5 small bay leaves
2 tsp french thyme or just thyme (i love the flavor of thyme)
2 c chicken broth
1 c water
1/4 c vegetable oil

Steps:

  • 1. City Chicken bought from the grocery store all ready cut up and has skewers with it. Put 4 pieces of pork loin on each skewer. --- I always rinse the meat first before I do anything else.
  • 2. Wash the pork off and pat some of the water off with a paper towel. Lay the pork skewers out on wax paper. Salt & pepper on both sides.
  • 3. Place your flour in a bowl and roll your skewers in flour till nicely coated and set them on a plate.
  • 4. Now, heat up 1/4 cup of vegetable oil in a large deep pan and once oil is hot place your skewers down inside pan and brown pork on each side. (Depending how hot your pan gets it should be 5 - 7 minutes on each side.)
  • 5. Browning the other side now.
  • 6. Now, remove the skewers from pan and put on a new plate. Pour out any extra oil into a small ceramic dish.
  • 7. Pour in your chicken broth and water and scrap bottom of the pan for the brown bits.
  • 8. Add your chicken broth, water, bay leaves and 2 tsp of thyme. (I heat my chicken broth w/water in the microwave to it's nice and hot.) Now place your pork skewers back inside the pan. Turn on to a medium heat so the sauce is simmering and let cook for 30 - 40 minutes.
  • 9. Made City Chicken served over Lundberg's Jubiliee rice with corn cake muffins. Yumm 1/21/13
  • 10. Sept. 14th, 2018 - Made this for dinner tonight and served it over mashed potatoes.
  • 11. February 21, 2016 --- I wanted to share that we tried making the city chicken with almond flour and it was a success. For those trying to avoid or cannot have wheat this is a great alternative and it was very tasty as well.
  • 12. Sept. 14th, 2018 -- City Chicken coated with coconut flour served over spaghetti squash.
