Put the white sauce back onto the heat and slowly add the stock and gelatine, allow to simmer for a couple of minutes. Then remove from the heat and allow to cool but not set. Stir the cream into the sauce as it is cooling. Remove the skin from the chicken and place on a board or plastic tray. Pour the white sauce generously over the chicken.
