City Chicken (But It's Not Chicken!) image

Ultimate winter, "feel good" food! This is a favorite at our house and the gravy just has to be served over some homemade, garlic mashed potatoes. Add some Chunky Cinnamon Applesauce and you have a wonderful meal! This recipe came from a '98 Taste of Home Magazine. This can be a bit on the salty side - exchanging the garlic salt for garlic powder and then using reduced sodium chicken broth would help.

Time 1h15m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 lbs boneless pork, cut into cubes
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/4 cup butter or 1/4 cup margarine
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 (1 7/8 ounce) envelope onion soup mix
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can chicken broth
1 cup water
6 small wooden skewers (If desired)

Steps:

  • Thread chunks of pork on small wooden skewers. (I have skipped this step and it works just fine having the chunks of meat loose in the pan.).
  • Combine flour, garlic salt and pepper on a plate.
  • Roll kabobs or loose pork chunks in flour mixture until coated.
  • In a large skillet, heat butter and oil over medium heat.
  • Brown meat, turning frequently;drain.
  • Sprinkle meat with soup mix.
  • Add broth and water.
  • Bring to very low boil.
  • Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 1 hour or until tender.
  • Remove meat and keep warm.
  • Thicken the pan juices to make a wonderful gravy to put over the meat and mashed potatoes.
