Chicken Steamed In Spiced Broth Recipe


Chicken Steamed In Spiced Broth Recipe
This is a favorite of mine that I originally got in Reader's Digest Live Longer Cookbook. Broth can be sipped as a soup or served as a light sauce.

Ingredients
  • 1 whole broiler-fryer (2.5-3 lbs)
  • 1/4 tsp. salt
  • 1 lemon, rind pricked all over with a fork
  • 2 cloves garlic, crushed
  • 3 c. chicken stock
  • 1 cinnamon stick, split lengthwise
  • 1/2 tsp. each ground cumin and coriander
  • 1/8 tsp. each ground cardamom, ginger and cayenne

Directions
  1. Rub the chicken cavity with the salt. Place the lemon and garlic inside the cavity and truss the chicken.
  2. In a Dutch oven large enough to hold a rack or metal colander, bring the stock, cinnamon stick, cumin, coriander, cardamom, ginger, and cayenne to a boil.
  3. Place a rack in the Dutch oven, set the chicken on top, cover, and simmer over low heat for 1 hour. Transfer the chicken to a cutting board, remove and discard the skin, and cut into serving pieces.

I love this... I steam chicken to use in salads etc.. but this takes it up a notch... have to try it.. and it won't show up on my butt!
Thanks...


I steam chicken (to use in recipes) too, and this certainly DOES kick things up a notch! I never thought to steam a chicken to serve as a main...great idea! Thanks for the recipe, CoffeeBean!


It was great! Thanks!
