    Source of Recipe


    Mama Dip

    List of Ingredients




    1 (5-lb.) whole chicken
    4 carrots
    4 celery ribs
    1 large onion, quartered
    1-1/2 teaspoons salt
    1 teaspoon pepper
    6 tablespoons butter
    1 tablespoon chicken bouillon granules
    1 teaspoon poultry seasoning
    1/4 cup shortening
    2 cups self-rising flour
    3/4 cup milk
    3 large eggs, lightly beaten
    1 cup coarsely crushed saltine crackers (about 24 crackers)
    1 tablespoon butter or margarine, melted

    Recipe



    Remove chicken and cool.

    Pour 6 cups broth through a wire-mesh strainer into a large bowl, discarding solids. Reserve remaining broth for later use. Whisk 6 tablespoons butter, bouillon granules and poultry seasoning into strained broth until smooth. Set aside to cool.

    Cut shortening into flour with a pastry blender or fork until crumbly. Add milk, stirring just until dry ingredients are moistened. Spread dough to a 1/2-inch thickness on a lightly greased baking sheet, forming 1 large hoecake.

    Bake at 400 degrees for 25 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on wire rack; break into pieces.

    Skin, bone and coarsely chop chicken. Layer chicken and hoecake pieces in a lightly greased 13x9-inch baking dish. Whisk together chicken broth mixture and eggs; pour evenly over chicken and hoecake pieces.

    Stir together cracker crumbs and 1 tablespoons melted butter; sprinkle evenly over top of chicken mixture.

    Bake at 375 degrees for 30 minutes or until golden brown and set. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.
