Cover the chicken with cold water, bring it to a boil and then lower the heat to a bare simmer. When there is no more pink in the meat near the bone, it's done. For a whole chicken that could take up to an hour.

You should boil a chicken an hour to an hour and a half in a mild boil. Do not boil it in a hard, rolling boil. it should be tender and allow it to cool off before handling.
