Description

A recipe for a whole chicken casserole.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 50g butter
  • 120g bacon, chopped
  • 1 whole chicken, without giblets, cut into pieces
  • 30g flour
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp pepper
  • 6 shallots, chopped
  • 200g mushrooms cups, sliced
  • 2 carrots, chopped
  • 2 celery sticks, chopped
  • 4 potatoes, chopped
  • 600ml chicken stock

Instructions

  1. Preheat an oven to 180°. Meanwhile add butter to a frypan and heat over a medium heat, let melt, then add bacon and cook for 4 minutes or until seared, then remove and set aside, leaving the fat in the frypan. Season the chicken with salt and pepper, then add to the frypan. Cook for 6 minutes, or until seared, stirring often. Set chicken pieces aside with bacon.
  2. Transfer about 1 tbsp of oil from the frypan to a cast iron pot, discarding the rest, then heat the pot over a medium heat. Add shallots, mushrooms, carrots, celery and potato to the pot. Turn the heat down to medium low and cook for 7 minutes, stirring often.
  3. Add flour and stir until combined. Slowly add stock, stirring so that the consistency stays smooth. Bring to the boil.
  4. Add chicken and bacon that’s put aside, stir, cover with lid and put in the oven for 40 minutes, stirring occasionally. Serve.
