Time 1h5m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 tablespoons butter
2 medium shredded zucchini
3 slices white bread, torn in small pieces
1 egg
1/2 cup shredded swiss cheese
3 lbs frying chickens, quartered
salt and pepper
2 tablespoons honey (approx.)

Steps:

  • To serve, remove onto a warm platter. Brush with honey and sprinkle lightly with salt.
