Subject: Smothered Chicken
To: posts@chitterlings.com
First wash chicken, pat dry. In bowl mix flour, seasoning (salt,
pepper, paprika).
Put frying oil in skillet (enough to cover chicken). Get the oil
hot but do not burn. Once its ready, put chicken in hot grease
and fry golden brown. Fry your chicken until its crispy. Pour all
of the grease out of the skillet except about 3-4 tablespoons of
grease. Put enough flour in the grease to make a paste, brown it.
The darker the better (do not burn). Once you brown the paste,
add water (add water according to how soupy you want it) (As the
chicken simmer the gravy should get thicker). (You can keep
adding water to it until the chicken is tender). Add onions,
salt and pepper (season to taste), put the chicken in the mixture
over slow to medium heat and let simmer until tender and soft.
Once its ready, you should have some hot biscuits ready to help
sop the gravy :-)

Subject: Smothered Chicken
To: posts@chitterlings.com
There are so many good recipes for smothered chicken and they
basically use the same ingredients and cooking method. After you
prepare it a few times, you sort of "tailor" it to your own
taste
...adding a little more of this or a little less of that. Here is
a good one to get you started.
Smothered Chicken
1 whole chicken cut into pieces or your favorite ready-cut pieces
(about 4 lbs.)
1 tsp. seasoning or regular salt
1/2 tsp. pepper
1 1/2 cup flour
3/4 cup vegetable oil
2 chopped onions (med.)
2 chopped celery ribs
1/2 chopped bell pepper (large)
1/2 tsp. crushed dried rosemary
quart of chicken broth
1) Salt and pepper the chicken pieces and roll in the flour.
2) Heat the oil in a large skillet. Add the chicken and brown
on both sides. Remove chicken and set aside after browning.
3) Pour off the oil from the skillet reserving about 4 tblsp.
Reduce heat and add the onions, celery, bell pepper, and rosemary.
Cook until tender and transparent (approx. 5 min.)
4) Sprinkle about 4 tablespoons of flour over the mix and stir.
Slowly stir in the chicken broth and bring to simmer.
5) Add the browned chicken to the broth, reduce heat, cover,
and simmer until the chicken is cooked through (approx. 40 min.).
6) Remove the chicken to a serving bowl. If the gravy is not
thick enough, cook over high heat until thickened to your liking.
Season with additional salt and pepper, if needed. Pour over the
chicken. Serve with rice or side dish of your choice.

I'm looking for a recipe for chocolate bread pudding.
Thanks.
I have a "recipe" of sorts for beef stew for a crock pot or
slow cooker, but could easily be adapted to just stove top.
1# stew meat
1/2 onion , thin slices
1 green bell pepper, thin slices
1 can tomato sauce
flour
carrots , peeled and cut in small pieces
potatoes, skinned or not, cut in medium sized chunks
celery, cut in 1 inch pieces
Dredge stew meat in flour, salt and pepper. Brown in skillet
with about 1/2 cup of oil in it until all sides are brown.
Put meat in crock pot on low. Add onions and bell pepper to
the skillet and brown. Put them in the crock pot. Leave about
3 Tablespoons oil in the skillet. Add 3 Tablespoons flour slowly
stirring until golden brown. Add one can of tomato sauce and one
or two cans of water, stirring until thick. If it is too thick
add more water until it is the consistency of a good hearty gravy.
Pour the gravy over the meat and vegetables in the crock pot.
Add the rest of the vegetables and simmer on slow all day
(6-8 hours) until meat is tender.
Cook up a pan of cornbread and enjoy.

Subject: BEEF STEW RECIPES
Arnold Pancratz, Maitre de Cuisine, Jackson, MS created these two
stew recipes.
STEPHANIE'S STEW
My granddaughter Stephanie said her friend wanted to fix a
stew and asked for a recipe. I came up with this one.
Ingredients:
1 lb ground beef
1 tsp garlic powder
4 cups water
1 cup sliced carrots
1 cup chopped onion
1 1/2 cups diced potatoes
other vegetables you like. I had 1/2 cup fresh blackeye
field peas on hand
1 teaspoon peanut or other vegetable oil
1/4 stick butter
2 tablespoons flour
pinch paprika
salt and pepper to taste - added by individual once served
Directions:
Place a 2 qt or larger pot on stove and turn on medium heat..
Open meat package, dust each piece on each side lightly with
garlic powder.
Place meat pieces in the hot, empty pan. Turn so that
neither side is still red.
Add 2 cups water. Cook at a rolling boil for 15 minutes,
then turn to simmer for another 15 minutes.
While meat is simmering, into a large bowl dice the potatoes,
then add the sliced carrots and finally the chopped onions and any
other favorite vegetables. Cover the bowl while waiting out the
45 minutes, then add vegetables to the meat. Add 2 more cups
water. Bring to a rolling boil for 15 minutes, then turn heat to
simmer for 45 minutes or until potatoes and carrots are soft.
During this time In a frying pan place 1 tsp oil and 1/4
stick (1/16 lb) butter. Place on medium heat. When butter has
melted, add 2 tablespoons flour and the paprika. Combine well.
Just before this starts to brown, turn off heat. When the
simmering time for meat and vegetables is finished, drain liquid
from pot into frying pan. Heat frying pan, stirring the roux
(flour mixture) and liquid, using a fork to mash any lumps that
may form. As this starts to thicken, pour it into the pot
Mix well, heat for a few minutes and serve.
Makes approximately one quart.
GRANDPA'S BEEF AND BARLEY STEW
Ingredients:
4 cups water
1 cup barley (pearled or unpearled)
1 cup minced yellow onion
½ lb ground beef
½ tsp garlic powder
Salt & pepper to taste
Directions:
In a 4 qt or larger pressure pot place the water and barley.
Bring to a boil and then let sit for at least an hour. Add
onion, ground beef and garlic powder. Bring to a boil again.
Break the beef into fine pieces. Now pressure at 15 lbs for 45
minutes. Add salt and pepper to taste. Serves two.

the difference would you have to cook them in some type of syrup
or make a syrup? Please let me know. I would love to try a GREAT
