Realisation

Poached chicken

Truss the chicken, submerge in cold chicken stock and slowly increase temperature to 80°C.  Maintain this poaching temperature according to the weight of the chicken.  Allow 1 hour of cooking time per kilogram, and add 10 minutes of cooking time per 100 g. 
Refrigerate while still in the broth.
Place chicken on a rack, set aside broth for the sauce.


Shellfish butter

Crush the shellfish meat using scissors.
Sweat the garlic and shallots (unpeeled) in 100 g of butter along with the tomato paste.
Add the shellfish meat and sauté lightly, then add thyme and 500 g of butter.
Let simmer lightly for about thirty minutes.
Add pepper, let infuse for 5 minutes, then pass through a fine strainer.  Allow the fat to settle.  Remove fat, set aside.


Poultry shellfish sauce

Brown the shellfish heads, add shallots and cook 5 minutes.
Add garlic, tomato paste, and quartered tomatoes.
Add chicken stock and reduce by half.
Add cream and bring to the boil for several minutes.
Blend and pass through a filter cloth, season to taste and blend, adding shellfish butter.


Garnish

Boil each of the vegetables separately; drain.  Keep chilled.  Brown shrimp lightly.


Decoration

Remove the wings and thighs of the poached chicken.
Brown the wings and thighs.
Pan-fry the different vegetables in butter without browning them.
Arrange on a plate with the shrimp.
Before serving, emulsify the chicken shellfish sauce, then serve.
