Chicken, Poultry & Game

In this section of “Middlings”, as in main course meals, I am sharing recipes for chicken, poultry and game. It’s inevitable that there are more recipes for chicken, as it features regularly on my dinner table, being easy to cook and also low in calories when I’m on a “health kick”. It’s also the bird that just keeps on giving, so a roast chicken on Sunday goes on to offer sandwiches, salads, pies and then an aromatic stock for soups and stews made with the carcass and bones.
My only game recipe is for guinea fowl, a game bird that we all love… I always describe it as chicken with attitude when people ask what it tastes like, although one average bird only feeds to 2 to 3 people at the most. When I lived in France, guinea fowl, or pintade as it is called there, was as popular as chicken and could be very easily sourced in all the major supermarkets. In the UK, you will need to go to a good, local butcher to obtain one, but that’s all to the good as you will be supporting a local and independent business.
