God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
If atheists are right that we are the product of mindless unguided natural processes, then they have given a strong reason to doubt the reliability of human cognitive faculties and therefore inevitably to doubt the validity of any belief that they produce – including their atheism, their biology, and their belief in naturalism – would therefore appear to be at war with each other in a conflict that is nothing at all to do with God.
Bouquet garni; (with a few parsley stems, sprig of fresh thyme, sprig of fresh tarragon, and a scrap of bay leaf)
2
oz
Dried morels or 4 ounces trimmed fresh morels
2/3
c
Homemade chicken stock; up to 1
1
c
Heavy cream
Roux; recipe follows
INSTRUCTIONS
Garnish:
Sprigs of fresh flat leaf parsley
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Season the cavity and breast of the chicken with salt and pepper. Smear the
butter over the breast and legs. Put into a flameproof casserole with the
wine, unpeeled garlic, and bouquet garni. Bring to a boil on top of the
stove, then cover and transfer to the preheated oven to cook for 1 1/4 to 1
1/2 hours, depending on the size of the chicken. If the morels are dried,
cover with boiling chicken stock and let soak for 1 hour.
As soon as the chicken is cooked (the internal temperature should be at
least 170 degrees), transfer to a carving dish and keep warm. Skim the fat
from the pan juices with a metal spoon, and remove the garlic and bouquet
garni. Add the cream, bring to a boil, and thicken by reduction, or better
still, whisk in just a little roux. If the morels are fresh, wash them
carefully to remove all traces of grit or soil. Melt a little butter in a
hot pan, and toss the morels gently for 2 to 3 minutes. Season with salt
and pepper. Add the morels and their soaking liquid, if using dried ones,
to the sauce. Simmer gently for 5 minutes. Meanwhile, carve the chicken and
arrange on a serving dish. Taste the sauce and season in necessary. Spoon
the sauce over the chicken and divide the morels equally among each
helping. Garnish simply with a little flat leaf parsley and serve
immediately.
Yield: 4 to 6 servings
