Recipe
Corner
1
whole chicken (3-4 lb.)
1/2
lemon
3
leeks, halved and washed
thoroughly
1
pint chicken stock (optional)
1/4
cup unsalted butter, melted
2
tbsp. finely chopped Italian
parsley
1
pinch of dried tarragon (or 1
tsp. freshly chopped tarragon)
Salt
and freshly ground black
pepper to taste
Preheat
oven to 300 F. Remove
giblets from chicken cavity,
clean chicken, and pat dry. Rub
chicken inside and out with
lemon, squeezing juice as you do
so. Leave lemon in chicken
cavity. Place chicken in large
Dutch oven or other heavy-lidded
casserole. Place leek halves
around chicken. If you prefer a
very moist casserole, pour stock
over leeks. Use pastry brush to
cover chicken with melted
butter. Sprinkle all over with
parsley, tarragon, salt, and
pepper. Insert meat thermometer
in thickest part of thigh,
taking care to not touch the
bone. Place lid on casserole and
cook for 2-2 1/2 hours. Cook
until meat thermometer reads 180 F,
or juice is no longer pink when
center of thigh is sliced and
drumstick moves easily when
lifted. Let stand for 15 minutes
before carving. Serve with leeks
and liquid from casserole.
