Ingredients

  • 1 (3 pound) whole chicken
  • 1 large Onion, halved - unpeeled
  • 3 Carrots, cut into chunks - unpeeled
  • 2 stalks Celery, cut into chunks
  • 1 tbsp Whole Peppercorns
  • Water, to cover

Instructions

  • First of all, you need to get a pot, large enough to accommodate the chicken.
  • After washing the pot properly, place the chicken in it.
  • Now, add onion, carrots, celery and peppercorns.
  • Finally, add water to the pot, enough to cover the chicken.
  • Cover the pot with a lid and keep on high flame.
  • After the water starts boiling, reduce the flame to allow a gentle boil.
  • Let the chicken cook on low flame for 90 minutes.
  • Now, check the chicken. If the meat is falling off the bone, the chicken is done. If not, boil for some more time.
  • Take the pot off the flame and remove chicken from it.
  • After the chicken cools down, use as per your requirement.
