Answer 1

SOUTHERN CORN CHOWDER

1/4 lb lean salt pork or pancetta
1 onion, chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
2 tablespoons chopped green bell pepper
2 potatoes, cubed
3/4 cup diced celery, strings removed
1 1/2 cups boiling water or stock
1 cup undiluted evaporated milk
1 medium can whole kernel corn (or 1 1/2 cups frozen)
1/2 teaspoon salt (or 1 chicken bouillon cube)
1 tablespoon butter (room temperature)
2 teaspoons flour

Cut salt pork or pancetta into 1/4 inch dice and brown in bottom of a saucepan. Add onion, garlic and pepper; sauté 5 minutes.
Add potatoes, celery and boiling water or stock. Add salt or bouillon cube. Cover and simmer over low heat until potatoes are tender. Add corn and evaporated milk (Fresh milk or Cream may be substituted for evaporated milk). Blend together butter and flour evenly and gradually add to chowder.

Cook, uncovered over low heat for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally until soup is thickened. Be careful not to scorch bottom (it's best to use a heavy bottomed pan and watch heat carefully).

Season to taste with salt and pepper and serve with milk crackers.

Note: Creamed corn may be substituted.


Variations:

Add 1 package frozen chopped broccoli for cream of broccoli soup.
Add 1 can chopped clams or 1 cup chopped fresh clams for a quick New England clam chowder.

Answer 2

"Oven Fried" Southern Style Cinnamon Honey Chicken

Ingredients:
3 lbs chickens, jointed in 8 pieces (make sure to use good quality chicken)
1/2 cup flour
2 teaspoons salt
3/4 teaspoon good quality cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon turmeric
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 pinch freshly ground nutmeg
1 egg
2 tablespoons milk
1/3 cup dried crushed breadcrumbs
Cooking spray
2 tablespoons oil (optional)

Sauce
1/4 cup butter
1/2 cup honey
2 pinches finely ground cinnamon
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

Steps:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

2. Spray a large roasting pan lightly with cooking spray.

3. Combine the flour with the salt, cinnamon, turmeric, black pepper, and a pinch OF nutmeg.

4. Coat the chicken pieces well with the flour mixture (you can use chicken with or without skin on - it's up to you).

5. Beat together the egg and milk, dredge the flour-coated chicken pieces in the egg mixture; then into the breadcrumbs.

6. Arrange pieces skin side up (if using pieces with skin) in the sprayed roasting pan, making sure that the pieces are not touching each other (if possible) to ensure they bake crispy; spray chicken pieces with oil spray or sprinkle with 2 tablespoons oil and place the chicken in the oven to bake.

7. While the chicken is baking, in a saucepan over medium low heat combine the butter, honey, pinches of cinnamon, and lemon juice.

8. After the chicken has baked for 25 minutes, pour the butter and honey mixture generously over the pieces.

9. Bake for an additional 15 minutes or until the juices run clear and the chicken is crisp and brown.

Note: if you'd like to add a bit of kick to the recipe, you can try a pinch or two of cayenne (to taste) in the honey sauce, or perhaps some red pepper flakes.

Good luck and enjoy! =)

Answer 3

Here is my favorite. Heart attack special.

Southern-Fried Chicken

1 3 lb chicken, cut up
1/3 cup butter milk
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
1/2 cup flour
1 teaspoon salt
2/3 cup lard or oil, lard will give the best flavor.

1. Combine flour, salt and pepper in a paper or plastic bag. Dip chicken in the buttermilk. Shake one or two pieces of chicken in bag to coat.

2. In a large deep frying pan, melt lard over medium-high heat to 375 degrees, or as I do sprinkle a little water from your fingers and if it splatters it is hot enough. Add chicken pieces and cook turning frequently until brown and crisp, 20 to 25 minutes. Drain on paler towels.

You might want to search for a recipe for sweet potato pie. Or you can use a pumpkin pie recipe just use sweet potato's instead of pumpkin.

Southern Style Chicken and Dumplings

1 (3 pound) whole chicken
1 onion, quartered
2 slices lemon
salt and pepper to taste
3 cups water
1 bay leaf
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
2 cups all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons shortening
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup water


Directions:
1. In a heavy pot with a lid place the chicken, onion, lemon, salt, pepper, water, bay leaf and thyme. Simmer all over low heat until tender, about 1 hour.
2. Let chicken cool slightly in pot, then remove and take the meat off of the bones. Discard the bones and skin and skim excess fat off the broth if desired. Discard the onion, lemon and bay leaf. If desired, wash out pot well. Return broth and chicken pieces to the pot. Simmer over low heat while making the dumplings.
3. To Make Dumplings: In a medium mixing bowl, cut shortening into the flour and salt. Stir in 1/4 cup water (more if needed) to form a soft dough. Roll out dough on a floured surface, with a rolling pin, until very thin. Cut into 1 inch wide strips using a pizza cutter or knife. Tear off 1 inch long pieces from these strips and drop into simmering broth and chicken meat. Simmer for 10 minutes with the lid off, then 10 minutes more with the lid on. Serve immediately.



Southern Fried Corn

6 Ears corn

2 Tbsp. flour
1 Tbsp. sugar

Shuck corn. Wash and remove silk. Cut corn cobs in half. Then cut kernels off. (This is called cream-style cutting.) Scrape juice out of corn cob into the corn. Heat oil in large skillet. Add corn, flour, sugar, water, milk, salt and pepper. Bring mixture to boil, stirring constantly. Cover; reduce heat and simmer until corn is tender, about 20 to 25 minutes. If necessary, add a little hot water. Note: I have used canned whole kernel yellow and white corn. Works fine for me.
