The recipe,
step by step

  1. 1

    Chicken

    Joint the raw chickens. Use the carcasses to make a white chicken stock with the lemon zest and grated fresh ginger. Cook for 30 minutes over a low heat. Strain through a china cap sieve.
    Chef's tip

    Declination: Prepare this recipe using tandori spices for an Indian style chicken or smokey spices for a Mexican style.

  2. 2

    Coconut-lemon-gingercream

    Sweat the finely chopped onions in butter without colouring.  Add the pieces of cooked chicken. Cover with white chicken stock, add the lemon zest and grated fresh ginger. Season and cook for 20 to 30 minutes (remove the breasts after 10 minutes then continue cooking the thighs). Remove the thighs and reduce the cooking liquid to a glaze. Add the cream and coconut milk. Reduce to coating consistency. Add the lemon juice. Blend.
  3. 3

    Vegetables

    Peel and wash the carrots. Prepare the leeks. Cut the carrots and leeks at an angle. Cook each vegetable in a saucepan with 10 g of butter, salt, pepper, sugar and a little water.
  4. 4

    Candied lemon

    Peel and segment the lemon. Cut the peel into a dice. Blanch 3 times. Rinse. Add the sugar and lemon juice and cook over a very low heat for 20 to 30 minutes.
