Chicken and Chicken Dressing Recipes
Cut a fowl into pieces to serve and cook in water to
cover until the bones will come out easily. Before taking them out drop
dumplings in, cover closely and cook ten minutes without lifting the
cover. The liquid should be boiling rapidly when the dough is put in and
kept boiling until the end. For the dumplings sift two cups of flour
twice with half a level teaspoon of salt and four level teaspoons of
baking powder. Mix with about seven-eighths cup of milk, turn out on a
well floured board and pat out half an inch thick. Cut into small cakes.
If this soft dough is put into the kettle in spoonfuls the time of
cooking must be doubled. The bones and meat will keep the dough from
settling into the liquid and becoming soggy. Arrange the meat in the
center with dumplings around the edge and a sprig of parsley between
each. Thicken the liquid and season with salt and pepper as needed and a
rounding tablespoon of butter.

not merely chopped and moistened with egg, as is usually done by
inexperienced cooks; forcemeat can be served in a variety of forms,
and is so useful a resource, that it well repays the attention it

SOY AND SESAME THIGH KEBABS
Thigh meat is a good choice for barbecuing because it's naturally juicy and doesn't easily dry out or toughen. If you want to grill some vegetables at the same time, reserve some of the marinade and baste the vegetables with it. Try serving the kebabs over rice.
4 roaster boneless thigh cutlets
1 teaspoon minced, fresh ginger or 1/2 teaspoon dried
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons sesame seeds
1/3 cup soy sauce
1 tablespoon white vinegar
4 tablespoons vegetable oil
Tabasco, to taste
Flatten cutlets slightly with a meat pounder. Cut each thigh into 6 or 8 pieces. In a shallow dish, combine remaining ingredients. Add thigh pieces and toss to coat well. Cover and marinate one hour or longer, refrigerated. Thread chicken onto skewers; reserve marinade. Grill kebabs 5 to 6 inches above medium-hot coals for 20 to 30 minutes until cooked through Turn and baste often with marinade.

HENS NORMANDY WITH APPLES
If you're not using the apples in this recipe the day you buy them, store them in the refrigerator. Apples age five times faster at room temperature than they do in the refrigerator so they'll keep fresher longer if you store them in the refrigerator instead of in a fruit bowl.
2 fresh Cornish game hens
salt and ground pepper to taste
1 tablespoon minced, fresh sage or 1 teaspoon dried
3 tablespoons butter or margarine, melted
2/3 cup apple juice
2 Golden Delicious apples, peeled
1/3 cup chicken broth or white wine
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon minced fresh parsley
Season hens inside and out with salt and pepper. Put 1/2 of sage in each cavity. Tie legs together and fold wings back. Place hens in a flame proof baking pan just large enough to hold them comfortably. Brush with melted butter. Add apple juice to baking pan. Bake at 350oF 30 minutes, basting several times. Core and quarter apples; add to pan and baste. Bake 30 minutes, until hens and apples are tender, basting several times. Remove hens and apples to serving platter; keep warm. On top of stove, bring pan drippings to a boil; add broth or wine and cook until reduced by half. Stir in cream; cook 2 to 3 minutes until slightly thickened. Pour sauce over hens and apples. Sprinkle with parsley and serve.
