I broke down a full chicken, roasted and reduced the bones from stock to jus, dry brined a breast and thigh for 24 hours, blended the thigh with mirepoix and crimini mushrooms, stuffed that into the breast, and seared it in the smaltz that was rendered while making the jus.

While the ballotine finished in the oven, I made my carrot puree and finished the jus with butter, thyme, and shallots. Plated with some micro greens.

Was this inspired by the Jules Cooking YT channel?
I did that one a few times myself. It's a little unnerving deboning an entire chicken while keeping the skin intact, but from there out, it was pretty simple. I like the addition of mirepoix as it would bring together puree.
Wonderful playing, also. Where did the jue go, or was it served in the side?

It's absolutely ispired by his dish, but simplified. This was only one thigh and breast of the chicken and didn't include using the skin. I need to cook single servings since I just make these for myself.

Appreciate the plating compliments too! That's my biggest focus lately. The jus was on the side but should be visible in the second picture I included.
