IN Australia, chicken maryland is the whole leg, ie the drumstick and thigh together as one piece. I bought two recently then tried to find a recipe including the authentic American recipe, but struck out, so I ended up roasting them sprinkled with freshly ground black pepper and salt and a sprinkling of oregano. They tasted good, but not different than any other times I've cooked chicken.
The only recipe I found that said "American" was chicken pieces with corn. What's the real way to cook chicken maryland?

I live in Maryland but I have no idea! Maybe it has crabmeat in it? That's usually what people think of when they think of Maryland.
Oh this thread is 3 weeks old

Have you looked at wikipedia? That explains it all.
quote/ The term "Chicken Maryland" or "Maryland Chicken" refers to a historic dish associated with the U.S. state of Maryland, but has other meanings from other nations. In its home base, the food dish consists of fried chicken served with a cream gravy.
In Australia the term "Chicken Maryland" simply refers to a butcher's cut for a whole leg consisting of the thigh and drumstick.
The dish known in the UK as Chicken Maryland, popular in the 1960s, consisted of fried chicken (often in breadcrumbs) served with sweetcorn fritters and fried bananas. It is likely that it was derived as an alternative for the American version of the dish. end quote/
(sorry, couldn't be bothered going to the big reply page)
In Australia we also had the UK version - I can remember requesting this dish for a birthday treat one year. Parents had to phone a few restaurants to find one that offered it! This was a very long time ago. Probably the 60s.

Back in the 60s, it was crumbed fried chicken, served with pineapple and banana fritters, and chips.
