If you're keen and have time, you can chargrill your own capsicum. Otherwise
you can purchase capsicum already chargrilled - just be mindful of what it's
stored in. If it's in oil, drain and pat really well to remove as much excess oil as
possible. If you don’t, you’ll end up with a very soggy lunch!

Mish Tips
I like to carve the entire chicken and use the carcass to make chicken stock.
That way you have ready-to-eat leftover chicken and delicious stock for your
soups.
To make chicken stock, place carcass in a large pot of water with roughly
chopped vegetables (such as carrots, celery, onion, herbs, garlic). Season with
freshly ground black pepper. Simmer over medium heat for 1-2hrs then drain
stock and freeze.
