| Pousiin |
| A small, immature chicken, sometimes called a spring chicken, and weighing about 400g to 500g. Because the bird is only four to six weeks old, the flavour hasn't developed and there isn't much flesh on the bones, but one bird is perfect for a single serving.
Poussins benefit from a rich stuffing to add flavour. A good way to cook them is spatchcocked (split open down the back and flattened out) on the barbecue. |
