Time 1h

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (32 fluid ounce) container chicken stock
32 fluid ounces water, or more if needed
1 yellow onion, peeled and slits cut into it
1 bunch celery, stalks (including leaves) separated
3 carrots
2 tablespoons tomato paste, or more to taste
1 tablespoon salt
5 whole black peppercorns
1 bay leaf
2 pounds skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, each cut in half

Steps:

  • Combine chicken stock, water, yellow onion, celery, carrots, tomato paste, salt, peppercorns, and bay leaf in a large pot; bring to a gentle simmer. Decrease heat to medium-low and simmer, checking the flavor occasionally, until vegetables are slightly tender, 30 to 45 minutes.

Bring poaching liquid to a boil; remove pot from heat and cover tightly with a lid until chicken is no longer pink in the center, about 15 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

POACHED CHICKEN



Poached Chicken image

Poaching is cooking in simmering water, so a low, slow boil is what you're looking for here. Poaching liquid can be as simple as salt (1 tablespoon kosher per 1/4 pound chicken and 3 to 4 quarts water), plus a few whole peppercorns and a bay leaf. I add root vegetables and herb stems to add more layers to my poached chicken and build a flavor-packed punch to chicken soup or something more complex like pulled chicken curries, pozole or rich, Italian white ragu for sturdy cuts of pasta.

Time 2h30m

Yield 4 cups of meat and 3 quarts of stock

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 carrots and tops, if usable, cleaned and coarsely chopped
2 ribs celery with leafy tops, coarsely chopped
1 small bulb garlic, optional, halved across the horizontal center of bulb
1 leek, trimmed, washed and quartered (slice across and lengthwise)
1 small onion, halved
1 small lemon, halved
1 large or 2 medium bay leaves
A small handful of fresh parsley or parsley stems
A small handful of fresh thyme
About 1 teaspoon black peppercorns
One 4-pound chicken
About 1 tablespoon kosher salt

Steps:

  • To a large pot, add carrot, celery, garlic, leek, onion, lemon, bay, parsley, thyme, and peppercorns. Set the chicken into pot breast-side up, then add 3 to 4 quarts water to come up sides and just approach covering chicken, then cover and bring to boil. As soon as the pot boils, uncover and add salt, then turn down heat and simmer at low rolling boil, turning the whole chicken twice, every 30 minutes, 1 1/2 hours total. Let the chicken cool 30 minutes more in its own juice.
  • Remove chicken from cooled broth into shallow dish and remove skin, then pull and remove meat from bones with the assistance of a paring or boning knife. Pull or chop the meat into small or bite-sized pieces.
  • Strain the stock into a large container or bowl.
