City Chicken. I grew up on City Chicken, and love it! For those who don't know, it is not chicken at all, but pork (sometimes veal) chunks on skewers. This recipe is pretty close to what I grew up making. Try it!

"Back in the day" when chicken was more expensive than pork and veal, City Chicken was a skewer of pork and veal cubes named for the more expensive chicken.

The grocery stores around me sell a pack of cubed pork with the wood skewers already in the pack specifically for city chicken, so you may want to look for that first. But, if you can't find that, then cubing your own pork will work fine.

My version is my mom's version, very simple but ultimate comfort food.

We buy City Chicken all ready to cook on a wooden skewer at our local grocery store. I did not realize until recently that this is more of a regional dish. It is not chicken at all - but pork & veal.

Recipe for City Chicken. This depression era pork on a stick is spiced, breaded with panko bread crumbs, and lightly fried. Absolutely delicious!

Tender cubes of pork loin threaded on a skewer, breaded, and pan fried or baked. City Chicken makes a great snack, appetizer, or main meal.

This old-fashioned mock chicken dish is actually made of tender perfectly seasoned pork. This city chicken recipe's gravy is so good over mashed potatoes, too. —Barbara Hyatt, Folsom, California
