I have completed phase one of mission chicken - roast for me and DP. I now have a chicken carcass, still with about half a chicken's worth of meat on it.
So my plan is to:
a) strip the chicken of all its meat
b) make stock using the carcass, a couple of onions, garlic, carrots etc
c) turn stock into soup tomorrow by adding some of the leftover meat and barley soup mix and some more veggies
d) keep rest of meat to use in risotto or similar. Also, would I be able to freeze this meat, so we can use it on the weekend rather than having chicken 4 days on the trot?
PS, my roast was bloody amazing, first time I have ever made roast without help, thanks to everyone who encouraged me to begin mission chicken!
