This is something my grandmother made
when I was young. I always liked it. For years my Mom
would make it for my birthday. It is not the easiest
thing to put together now, but it is worth it. No idea
how the city part of the name came about. I think it
was meant as a spoof. My family were farmers. Let me
get started.
City Chicken Legs
1 lb. veal steak and 1 lb. pork steak
Cut into 1 x 1 1/2 inch pieces; sprinkle
with salt and pepper. Arrange veal and pork pieces alternately
on 6 wood skewers. Roll each one in flour, then in beaten
egg diluted with a little water, then in bread crumbs.
Brown meat well.
Add a little water or meat stock. Cover
and bake in oven at 325 degrees until tender.
These "Legs" (veal and pork
on skewers) can often be ordered from a butcher. They
are ready to be rolled and baked. It is a good company
meal or picnic treat.
