Source of Recipe
Better Times Almanac
List of Ingredients
Cooked meat from ½ chicken
dry bread, crumbled and/or dried corn bread
cream of mushroom soup (2 cans)
2-1/2 cups chicken stock
chopped celery
onion
corn, peas, or green beans
2 cups frozen vegetables Recipe
Chicken: Place cooked chicken meat in skillet, add frozen vegetables, onion, and ½ cup broth. Simmer 3 minutes. Add 2 tbsp flour, stir and cook briefly. Add canned vegetables (if desired), cream of mushroom soup, and two cups chicken broth (more broth equals more gravy, add 1 tbsp flour for each additional cup). Dressing: You can use all bread, half bread and half corn bread, or all corn bread. The point is that it is very dry and crumbled into small pieces. Fry chopped onion and celery in some margarine and add to crumbled bread. Add poultry seasoning (or sage and thyme) to personal taste (you can start with about 2 teaspoons of poultry seasoning or a teaspoon each of sage and thyme). Add salt and pepper, mix thoroughly. Add a little chicken broth to moisten the bread crumbs. It should hold together when pressed. Beat 1 egg and add to dressing. Chicken and Dressing: Put chicken mixture in casserole dish, put dressing on top, bake in 325 degree oven for 20-30 minutes.
