CLAY POT CHICKEN

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F. Rub the chicken all over with the oil, and loosely stuff the cavity with 3 onions, 1 garlic clove and 1 sprig of parsley. Set aside. On the bottom of a 3-quart terra-cotta jug or deep heavy casserole, spread half the prosciutto, 2 sprigs parsley, 4 onions, 1 garlic clove, 1 bay leaf and all of the giblets. Place the chicken head-first in the pot, or breast-side up in a casserole. Scatter the remaining onions, garlic, 3 sprigs parsley, prosciutto and bay leaf around and on top of the chicken. In a small bowl, combine the tomatoes, wine, Port, brandy, mustard, and pepper, and pour over the chicken. Cover the pot or casserole and bake for 1 1/2-2 hours, or until chicken is cooked through.
• Remove pot from the oven, and carefully remove the onions and reserve. Drain the liquid from the pot into a large skillet. Lift out the chicken and transfer to a roasting pan fitted with a rack.
• Use a slotted spoon to lift out the giblets from the pot, along with any remaining whole onions and add them to the reserved onions.
• Set the skillet of liquid over high heat, bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes, or until liquid is reduced by half, stirring often. Preheat a broiler. Place the chicken under the broiler for 3 to 4 minutes, or until browned. To serve, cut the chicken into pieces and arrange on a large platter. Scatter the onions and giblets around the chicken, and spoon some of the warm sauce over the top. Garnish with parsley sprigs and pass extra sauce.

FRENCH CHICKEN IN A POT (AMERICA'S TEST KITCHEN)

Steps:

• Adjust oven rack to lowest position and heat oven to 250 degrees. Pat chicken dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper.
• Heat oil in large (5- to 8-quart) Dutch oven over medium heat until just smoking. Add chicken breast-side down; scatter onion, celery, garlic, bay leaf, and rosemary (if using) around chicken. Cook until breast is lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Using a wooden spoon inserted into cavity of bird, flip chicken breast-side up and cook until chicken and vegetables are well browned, 6 to 8 minutes.
• Remove Dutch oven from heat; place large sheet of foil over pot and cover tightly with lid. Transfer pot to oven and cook until instant-read thermometer registers 160 degrees when inserted in thickest part of breast and 175 degrees in thickest part of thigh, 80 to 110 minutes.
• Transfer chicken to carving board, tent with foil, and rest 20 minutes. Meanwhile, strain chicken juices from pot through fine-mesh strainer into fat separator, pressing on solids to extract liquid; discard solids (you should have about 3/4 cup juices). Allow liquid to settle 5 minutes, then pour into saucepan and set over low heat.
• Carve chicken, adding any accumulated juices to saucepan. Stir lemon juice into jus to taste. Serve chicken, passing jus at table.

CLAY POT RICE WITH CHICKEN

Steps:

• Place rice, chicken broth, garlic and shallots into claypot.
• Mix in dark soya sauce, oyster sauce, pepper and sesami oil.
• Cook rice in chicken broth with a claypot over a medium flame.
• Leave the lid of the claypot closed during cooking until the broth is nearly evaporated.
• Open lid and pour in chicken thigh and chinese sausage.
• Replace the lid and continue cooking for about 10-15 minutes.
• Open the lid and stir the rice mixture to prevent the rice from sticking too much to the pot.
• Cook until the rice is cooked (should be soft and fluffy).
• Remove rice and serve.
• Add additional dark soya sauce and pepper to taste.

CARAMELIZED CLAYPOT CHICKEN

Steps:

• For the caramel sauce: In a medium saucepan, melt the sugar with fish sauce over medium-low heat, about 10 to 12 minutes.
• For the chicken: Heat the oil in a shallow claypot or sauté pan over medium heat. Add the shallots, chilies, ginger, ½ cup of caramel sauce, and plenty of freshly ground black pepper; bring to a boil. Continue cooking to reduce slightly, about 4-5 minutes, then add the chicken. Turn the heat down and simmer, stirring occasionally until the chicken is cooked through, about 20 minutes.
• Garnish with cilantro and serve with steamed jasmine rice (optional).
