   How to make chicken with vegetables over a fire in a cauldron? Prepare all the products indicated in the recipe. Pluck the chicken, gut it, and singe it to remove any remaining feathers. Wash the carcass thoroughly and dry with paper towels. Cut the chicken into small portions. If you have a frozen product, remove it from the freezer in advance and defrost it. Instead of a whole carcass, you can use individual parts of the bird.
