Cooking with Sutton Hoo chicken
Over the next few weeks we have the pleasure of working with Sutton Hoo Chicken. These truly free-range chickens roam over 40 acres of Suffolk meadowland and are slowly grown to maturity - they live 25% longer than any other organic or free-range chicken. Sutton Hoo’s unhurried and respectful approach adheres to the very best welfare standards; the birds have constant access to pastures and sunshine. Their life is a happy one, and their flavour is unrivalled. “Chicken as it used to taste”; we agree.
With a little know-how and thrift you can ensure that every last morsel is used and appreciated, and your Sutton Hoo chicken will go very far indeed. We bracket these recipes as the “Hero recipe”, “Spin-off supper”, and “Mop-up meal” - joined up cooking, if you will.
Here’s the first “Hero recipe” - Lemon, thyme & garlic roast chicken with creamy parmesan beans. The “Spin-off” and “Mop-up” recipes will follow next week!
