Boiled Chicken

Seasoned chicken boiled with onion and served with bacon and white sauce.

Put one quart of broth into a stewpan over the stove, and when it boils put in a cleaned and trussed fowl or chicken and season with an onion, a bunch of sweet herbs and a little salt and pepper. When the fowl is done, dish it up, garnish with pieces of fried bacon, and serve with white sauce.
