Steps:

• Pour the stock into a large stockpot and bring to a boil with the cilantro (tied for easy removal later), salt and pepper.
• Add the chicken, leek, onion, garlic, turnips, carrots, chayote, yams, potatoes, and cabbage and simmer over medium heat, cooking until the vegetables are tender and chicken is cooked, about 45 minutes.
• Transfer the chicken pieces to a tureen (skin the chicken if desired) or individual plates and surround with the vegetables. Strain the broth over the vegetables and chicken and garnish with Avocado Sauce.
• Cut the avocados into quarters. Remove the seeds, peel and place in a mixing bowl. Mash with a potato masher or fork. Add the remaining ingredients and beat with a fork to mix thoroughly.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees. In a 5-quart Dutch oven or heavy pot, combine broth and wine. Rub chicken all over with butter and season generously with salt and pepper. Tie legs together with kitchen twine. Place chicken in pot. Bake, uncovered, 30 minutes.
• In a large bowl, toss leeks, carrots, and garlic with oil; season with salt and pepper. Remove pot from oven and add vegetables. Bake until chicken's juices run clear when pierced between breast and leg or an instant-read thermometer inserted in thickest part of a thigh (avoiding bone) registers 165, 35 to 45 minutes. Let chicken rest 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, set a steamer basket in a large pot filled with 2 inches boiling water. Place potatoes in basket, cover, and steam until tender, about 15 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Carve chicken and serve with vegetables and pan juices.

CHICKEN-IN-A-POT

Steps:

• Put the carrots, onions, dill sprigs, lemon zest and olive oil in a 7-liter pressure cooker and sprinkle with salt. Sprinkle the chicken with salt. Pour the broth in the pot, and then nestle the chicken meat-side down on top of the vegetables. Close the pressure cooker lid and bring the pressure up to high over medium-high heat (this can take up to 10 minutes). Adjust the heat if necessary to maintain an even high pressure for 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and use the quick-release method to bring down the pressure.
• Stir the chopped dill into the chicken stew. Put 1 chicken breast in each of 4 large soup bowls and ladle some carrots and broth over each one.

FRENCH CHICKEN IN A POT (AMERICA'S TEST KITCHEN)

Steps:

• Adjust oven rack to lowest position and heat oven to 250 degrees. Pat chicken dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper.
• Heat oil in large (5- to 8-quart) Dutch oven over medium heat until just smoking. Add chicken breast-side down; scatter onion, celery, garlic, bay leaf, and rosemary (if using) around chicken. Cook until breast is lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Using a wooden spoon inserted into cavity of bird, flip chicken breast-side up and cook until chicken and vegetables are well browned, 6 to 8 minutes.
• Remove Dutch oven from heat; place large sheet of foil over pot and cover tightly with lid. Transfer pot to oven and cook until instant-read thermometer registers 160 degrees when inserted in thickest part of breast and 175 degrees in thickest part of thigh, 80 to 110 minutes.
• Transfer chicken to carving board, tent with foil, and rest 20 minutes. Meanwhile, strain chicken juices from pot through fine-mesh strainer into fat separator, pressing on solids to extract liquid; discard solids (you should have about 3/4 cup juices). Allow liquid to settle 5 minutes, then pour into saucepan and set over low heat.
• Carve chicken, adding any accumulated juices to saucepan. Stir lemon juice into jus to taste. Serve chicken, passing jus at table.

ROAST CHICKEN IN THE CROCK POT

Steps:

• Crumple three pieces of aluminum foil and place in the middle of your slow cooker.
• Add wine, garlic, onion, celery and carrot.
• Place chicken on top of aluminum foil. (You may have to push the chicken down a bit so it'll all fit in there!).
• Sprinkle chicken with herbs, salt and pepper.
• Set slow cooker to high and cook for 1/2 hour per pound.
• When ready, stick a meat thermometer into leg to ensure it is done. Transfer chicken to a roasting pan and set oven to 500º Fahrenheit.
• Roast for 8-10 minutes, or until skin is golden brown.
• Serve with roast root vegetables, mashed potatoes, or anything else you'd like!
• The best part of this recipe? After your done cooking everything, you'll have a considerable amount of jus left over from the chicken. Whisk it with some cornstarch for a truly delicious gravy, or save it in your fridge or freezer for at-the-ready soup stock when you need it in a pinch. (It's so much better than bouillon.).
