recipe:
• 1 x 1.5k/ 3½lb organic chicken [whole foods works well]
• sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
• 115g/4oz or ½ a pack of butter [i like plugra]
• olive oil
• 1/2 cinnamon stick
• 1 good handful of fresh sage, leaves picked
• zest of 2 lemons [his picture shows a "regular" and a meyer, we didn't use two different kinds]
• 10 cloves of garlic, skin left on
• 565ml/1 pint milk [kalona grass fed non-homogenized milk = great stuff]
Preheat the oven to 190°C/375°F/gas 5, and find a snug-fitting pot for the chicken. Season it generously all over, and fry it in the butter and a little olive oil, turning the chicken to get an even colour all over, until golden. Remove from the heat, put the chicken on a plate, and throw away the oil and butter left in the pot. This will leave you with tasty sticky goodness at the bottom of the pan which will give you a lovely caramelly flavour later on.
Put your chicken back in the pot with the rest of the ingredients, and cook in the preheated oven for 1½ hours. Baste with the cooking juice when you remember. The lemon zest will sort of split the milk, making a sauce which is absolutely fantastic.
To serve, pull the meat off the bones and divide it on to your plates. Spoon over plenty of juice and the little curds. Serve with wilted spinach or greens and some mashed potato.
...though a bit on the "hearty" side (with cinnamon even), we made it on the hottest and most humid day of the year.... and it was still great. maybe next time more lemon
...recipe for crisp kale is in the notes section of kale
