Breast Of Fowl (One Year) En Casserole Recipe

[tubeN2]

[font "Arial"]With a sharp knife cut the breast, entire, from a fowl a year old and leave the rest of the flesh intact Have three or four tablespoonfuls of salt pork or bacon fat, butter or vegetable oil in a frying pan; when hot cook the breast over a brisk fire on the skin side until slightly browned, then set into an earthen dish; add about a dozen slices of carrot and an equal number of celery and pour in boiling water to half cover the chicken; put on the cover of the dish and let boil five or six minutes, then set to cook in a moderate oven for about two hours. Allow plenty of time for cooking, as the chicken may be kept hot in the dish after it is cooked enough. Renew the water as needed and add salt and pepper when about half cooked. Serve from the dish, or dispose the chicken on a platter with the vegetables around it. [/font]
