- Wash the chicken, put it in a pot, cover with water, and set it over the heat. Simmer the broth for 2 hours (I used free-range bird). Skim the foam off the broth as it cooks.
- Peel the onion and drop it into the broth whole (don't chop it), along with the bay leaves and peppercorns. Peel and wash the parsley root and add it to the broth too.
- Cut the head and tail off the fish and add them to the broth.
- After two hours, strain the broth (you won't need the chicken in the soup anymore — save it for another dish — and discard the onion, bay leaves, parsley root, and peppercorns).
- Peel and wash the potatoes and carrots. Cut the potatoes into medium chunks and the carrots into rounds.
- Return the strained broth to the heat, add the prepared vegetables, and season with salt.
- Gut the fish, trim off the fins, rinse the body, cut it into large pieces, and add them to the soup. Once the sterlet is in, simmer the ukha for no more than 15 minutes, remembering to skim off the foam with a slotted spoon.
- Five minutes before the soup is done, pour the vodka into the broth.
- Serve hot, garnished with fresh dill.
- Enjoy!
