Ingredients
- Ingredients
- 1 Capon (3-4 lbs)
- ½ bunch Soup vegetables (such as carrot, leek, parsnip or other aromatic vegetables such as celery or onion)
- 1 bunch parsley
- 2 Tbsps melted butter
- ⅛ l Chicken broth (from a jar)
- 3 Tbsps butter
- salt
- freshly ground peppers
- ground paprika
- 400 grams carrots
- 400 grams Celery
- 3 Tbsps butter
Preparation steps
Rinse, peel and chop the soup vegetables. Rinse the chicken, pat dry and season with salt, pepper and paprika. Place the bunch of parsley and 1 tablespoon of butter in the cavity of the chicken. Place the soup vegetables and broth into the bottom of a roasting pan.
Place the capon on a wire roasting rack on top of the roasting pan and brush with melted butter. Roast in a preheated oven at 200°C (approximately 375°F) for 50 minutes, basting during cooking with butter. Remove the capon from the rack. Pour the pan juices into a saucepan with the vegetables and boil down a little to make a rich sauce. Strain through a sieve and keep warm.
Peel the carrot and cut into thin sticks about 5 cm (approximately 2 inches) long.
Rinse and trim the celery and cut into thin sticks.
Blanch the vegetables in boiling salted water for about 8 minutes. Drain and sauté in a hot pan with butter. Season with salt and pepper. To serve, place the capon on a large serving platter surrounded by the sautéed vegetables. Garnish as desired and serve with sauce.
