stewing hen
Pero se tiene que poder hacer la distinción cuando uno de verdad quiere utilizar una gallina vieja, hervirla mucho, y sacar un buen caldo (siempre va aser mejor que esperar a que se muera y darle sepultura).
He encontrado esta receta para Tortellini in Brodo- Tortellini in Broth, que habla de stewing hen.

Podría ser algo similar a tu receta.

I just remembered two expressions with chicken: a game called gallina ciega and pollo mojado meaning a coward.

hen stew filling
a kind of pasta, filled with [ground] hen stew, and cooked in the stock from the stew;
hen can only be cooked in water/broth, its meat being too tough to be baked or broiled, so it is a stew
