NJ vocabulary: What is Chicken Savoy?

By: Fabiana Santana

New Jersey has an impressive history with food. There are, of course, NJ-only offerings such as pork roll and disco fries, as well as dishes NJ has perfected, like the tomato pie. Another Garden State-only dish that has proven to be quite popular is Chicken Savoy. For those who have never heard of the meal, it’s best to start at the beginning.

Chicken Savoy — noun. A secret-recipe, savory chicken dish famous and found only in Northern Jersey. Example: “I was going to have leftover Chicken Savoy for lunch tomorrow but I ate the entire thing.”
