SOUTHERN CHICKEN CORNBREAD DRESSING

Steps:

• The very first step is to make your cornbread.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Boil your chicken legs in a large pot with plenty of water. You will need the broth as part of your ingredients.
• Once your chicken legs are cooked separate the meat from the bones.
• Pour your chicken broth into a 9x13 inch dish. Depending on how much water you used to boil your chicken you may not need all of your broth. You will want to fill your dish about half full of broth.
• Now you can add the rest of your ingredients, continuing to stir to get everything spread around. Add the chicken, 1 egg and cornbread. You should only need 1 skillet or 9x9 pan of cornbread for a 9x13 dish of dressing.
• Stir in the onion and celery. I chop these into little pieces using my food processor.
• Now you can add in the seasonings. Add salt, pepper, sage and poultry seasoning to taste. Make sure you go light on the sage and poultry seasoning at first and then you can add more if it needs it. I don't have exact measurements on how much I add but I would probably say somewhere around 1/2 tablespoon.
• Bake in the middle of the oven for approximately 1 hour. Stir the dressing every 20-30 minutes.

• Grease muffin tin with melted butter and fill all muffin cups ⅔ full with batter. Bake at 400°F for 15 to 20 minutes, until golden brown. (Muffins are done when an inserted toothpick comes out clean.)
• Place on the counter to cool.
• Remove cooked chicken from stock pot using 2 large slotted spoons (the chicken will fall apart). Reserve the broth.
• Place chicken on a large plate, remove all bones, and shred. (I only use the breast and wings and save the thighs for other dishes.)

Add the onions to the pan with 1 teaspoon salt and some pepper; cook over low heat until tender, about 5 minutes, scraping up the browned bits with a wooden spoon. Set the skillet aside.
• Combine the cornbread, spinach, cheese, pecans, garlic, 1 tablespoon of the mustard, 1/2 teaspoon salt and the nutmeg in a medium bowl. Crumble in the bacon and toss gently. Stuff the mixture between the skin and flesh of each chicken half, making sure to cover the breast and thigh.
• Place the chicken halves skin-side up on top of the onions in the skillet. Combine the butter and honey in a bowl and brush all over the chicken; season with salt. Roast in the oven until a thermometer inserted in the thigh registers 165, about 50 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a cutting board; let rest for 10 minutes. Whisk the remaining 1 tablespoon mustard into the onion mixture and set aside. Carve each chicken half and serve on a platter with the onions.

SOUTHERN CHICKEN CORNBREAD DRESSING

Steps:

• 1. Make your Cornbread first. Preheat oven to 425. Put shortening in a cast iron skillet, heat on stove top until melted. In large bowl, mix one egg, 2 cups cornmeal, 1 1/4 cup milk, 1/4 cup vegetable oil, mix and place carefully in skillet. Cook 25-30 minutes until toothpick in center comes out clean.
• 2. Boil chicken until completely cooked. Peel chicken off bone after it cools, keep the left over juice.
• 3. In a large pan, crumble your cornbread. Add in finely chopped onions, sage, salt and pepper (to taste), 6 eggs, and peeled chicken. Slowly begin adding in leftover broth mixing and adding more broth until you can press your hand on top of mixture and it feels moist, but not overly soupy. (hint I keep a box of stove top on hand in case I overly fill with broth to bring back texture).
• 4. Place in oven at 350 degrees for 45 minutes.
