When ready to cook, place a large heavy-bottom pot with tight-fitting lid on stove-top. Place the chicken inside the pot. Add in the chicken stock/water. Bring it to a boil and then lower the heat to the lowest and cover the lid. Let it cook for the next 1 to 1 1/2 hour. The meat will be really soft and juicy
