Tebdemir Hen

Ingredients:
→ 1 kg of hen , which could be a home - raised chicken
→ 1 liter of highly fermented rye beer
→ 1 orange
→ 30 gr . of estragon
→ 30 gr. garum ( see recipe below )
→ 5 gr . of pepper
→ 100 gr . of lard
Description:
We peel the orange and extract its juice , and mix it with the beer.
We cut the chicken into pieces of about 30 grams and season with pepper .
We put the lard in a clay pot and let it melt , at that moment we add the whole chicken , we are going to raise the fire to medium intensity , the objective is to brown and seal the pieces .
It will take approximately 15 minutes . When all the meat is browned , add the beer and let it cook over medium heat for 45 minutes .
After this time we add the garum and the tarragon , and let it cook for another 5 minutes .
If the fire is too strong , the liquid will evaporate , with the risk of burning the meat , so without any fear we will add more beer if we see that there is none left when it has not yet reached 45 minutes . We can accompany it with a red cabbage and some root .
