A while ago, my parent gave me "The All-American Cowboy Cookbook, Home Cooking on the Range". This recipe is from that book. "Hoppy" is short for "Hopalong".
Ingredients:
2 young chickens, 2 1/4 lbs each (I bought some chicken already cut into pieces.)
Salt and pepper
3 strips bacon
3 cups flour (you probably won't actually need this much- I didn't use all of mine.)
1 lb butter
1 1/2 cups whole milk (I actually used 2%)
Parsley
( More text, and pictures! )Definitely something to try again sometime. Chicken cooked in butter tastes nothing like chicken cooked in a liquid fat. It's amazing, even without the sauce.
