We Love God!

God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)

God promises a safe landing, not a calm passage.

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Pull away and discard any excess fat from the cavity. Rinse the bird
inside and out. Season with salt and pepper and place 1 bay leaf, 2 sprigs
parsley, and 1 sprig thyme in the chicken's cavity.
2. Melt the butter in a heavy Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the onions
and cook, stirring occasionally, until translucent but not browned, about 5
minutes. Place the bird, breast side up, in the Dutch oven and add enough
chicken broth or water (or half water and half chicken broth) to partially,
cover the chicken (by about two-thirds). Cover and simmer gently over low
heat for 30 minutes.
3. Skim the surface of the broth to remove any foam and fat. Add the
carrots, leeks, and celery to the pot. Tie the remaining parsley, thyme,
and bay leaf together with kitchen string to make a bouquet garni and add
it to the broth. Cover and regulate the heat to maintain the liquid at a
slow simmer for another 30 minutes.
4. Add the cubed potatoes to the simmering chicken broth and cook until the
pot- atoes are done and the chicken is very tender, 20 to 30 minutes.
5. Remove the chicken from the broth and transfer to a large plate. Discard
the bouquet garni. Allow the chicken to rest until it is cool enough to
handle. Strip off the skin and use
Yield: 4 - 6 servings
