Instructions

1- Prepare the Chicken Broth:

In a large pot, place the whole chicken and add 8 cups of cold water.
Add the sliced onion and minced garlic.
Bring the pot to a boil over medium heat. Once boiling, lower the heat and let it simmer for 30-40 minutes until the chicken is fully cooked and tender.

2- Shred the Chicken:

Carefully remove the chicken from the broth and let it cool slightly.
Once cool enough to handle, shred the chicken meat into thin strips, discarding the skin and bones.

3- Cool the Broth:

Strain the broth through a fine sieve to remove the onion and garlic pieces.
Allow the broth to cool to room temperature, then refrigerate until cold, about 2-3 hours.

4- Season the Broth:

Once the broth is chilled, add salt, vinegar, and mustard. Stir well until fully combined.

5- Serve the Chogyetang:

In a bowl, arrange a portion of shredded chicken.
Pour the seasoned cold broth over the chicken.
Optionally, add ice cubes for extra chill.
Garnish with lettuce leaves or fresh herbs.
Serve with a side of steamed rice if desired.
