Celebrate with this simple and flavorful whole chicken and vegetable poached dish, creating a clean and refreshing broth in just 1.5 hours. Serve with homemade walnut pesto for a satisfying meal that reflects the seasons.
Instructions:
  • Place the chicken in a large deep casserole pan. Prepare and add the fennel, celery, carrots, and turnips to the pan. Cover with cold water, add 1 teaspoon of sea salt, and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat for about 15 minutes. Reduce heat to low and simmer gently for 1 hour 15 minutes, skimming when needed for a clear broth and tender meat. While the broth simmers, make the pesto by crushing garlic and walnuts in a mortar. Combine with parsley, tarragon, cheese, horseradish, vinegar, and olive oil. Adjust seasoning. Add seasonal greens to the broth and cook for 5-10 minutes. Flavor the broth by dipping a bunch of herbs for 10 seconds, tasting, and repeating until desired flavor is achieved. Remove herbs and adjust seasoning. To serve, transfer chicken and vegetables to a warm bowl, cutting larger pieces as needed. Add leafy greens and meat to individual bowls, discarding skin. Ladle hot broth over the top and finish with a spoonful of walnut pesto. Serve with mustard and crusty bread.
