How to cook deliciously - Chicken Leg Toast
1 . Stage
Combine chicken drumsticks, carrots, onions, celery, and broth in a saucepan. Bring to a simmer over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes. Turn drumsticks over, cover, and cook for another 20 minutes.
2 . Stage
Remove chicken and transfer to a plate. Allow to cool, wrap, and transfer into the refrigerator until needed.
3 . Stage
Turn heat to medium-high and reduce cooking liquids in the saucepan to about 1/3 cup. Strain liquid into a mixing bowl, pressing some of the cooked vegetables through the sieve. Season gravy with black pepper, salt, thyme leaves, lemon zest, and cayenne; add creme fraiche and eggs and whisk everything together until a smooth batter forms.

Place bread in a shallow baking dish just large enough to fit the slices, and pour over the batter. Toss several times, wrap and place in the fridge for 1 hour or until almost all the batter is absorbed.

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with foil and lightly grease with butter.
