Chef’s Corner

 
Candy Polk

Candy Polk

We are sharing one of most popular recipes: parmesan-crusted chicken. Cook Candy Polk creates this tender chicken dish and it is featured at the Roastery. Polk has been a dedicated employee of Dining Services for 25 years and is especially thrilled that our customers enjoy this dish. Join UDS for lunch on Friday, March 19 to try this delicious entree.  If you like this, you should try “Candy’s Chicken.”  This baked chicken is Polk’s creation and is featured on our cycle menu as well.
