Author Miguel Botaya Jiménez

Ingredients

  • 2,5 - 3,25 kg Free range chicken to be de-boned

For the stuffing:

  • 700 g Ground free range chicken (or pork and veal)
  • Cured ham from Teruel
  • 200 g Bloc of foie gras
  • 1 Egg
  • 10 Boiled quail eggs
  • 1 Fresh black truffle
  • 30 g Pistachios
  • Brandy
  • Salt
  • Oil
  • Black pepper

Salsa

  • 4 Apples
  • 2 Onions
  • 1 Carrots
  • 150 ml Cream
  • 1/4 l Broth

Instructions

  • Remove the skin whole and reserve.
  • De-bone the thighs and the breasts and break open the carcass.
  • Prepare a broth with the bones. Form a roll of 25 cm. with the block of foie to place in the center of the stuffing.
  • Prepare a stuffing with the ground meat, half of the grated truffle, the pistachios, the egg, salt, pepper and brandy.
  • Stretch out the chicken skin, place the de-boned thighs on top, place half of the stuffing, place the roll of foie next, the quail eggs and the ham, cover with the remainder of the stuffing, place the chicken breasts on top.
  • Wrap it with the skin forming a roll. Cut the excess skin, sew and tie for baking. In a 250 C° oven place the chicken in an ovenproof dish and seal each side for 10 minutes.
  • Reduce the oven temperature to 170 C°. Add the vegetables with olive oil and small amount of salt around the chicken. Add 250 ml. of broth and roast for 160 minutes. Twenty minutes before finishing cooking, remove the onion and the apple to use in making a sauce.
  • Allow the chicken to brown and remove from the oven. Allow it to cool and wrap and place in a refrigerator.

Notes

To Assembly: Slice the cold chicken into pieces and heat for 20 minutes at 150 C°. Heat the sauce and grate truffle over it.
The aroma of the black truffle and the stickiness of the foie will round out the taste of the free range chicken. The placing of the meats and fillings results in equal and lovely slices.
