To make Chicken stock from whole chicken, you need to first of all season and briefly boil the chicken. Drain out the stock and set aside for cooking before baking or frying the chicken. In Naija, we

are used to adding stock (Beef or chicken) to our stews and soups and when there is no stock, it's a headache trying to figure out how to make the stew tasty without adding too much bouillon seasoning cubes. We were going to cook normal Boiled rice with Nigerian tomato stew but the tomato isn't enough and the chicken to be used is a whole chicken. I suggested we cut up the chicken into pieces and cook but the kids refused, they wanted to bake a whole chicken. In a second, my answer was ready. We can make stock for the stew from the whole chicken and still bake it.
