Enjoy your meal!

Cooking one pot chicken in the oven is a real pleasure. Preparing the food takes a minimum of time; the meat is stewed in its own juices, without adding fat. As a result, you get not a simple dish, but the most healthy one! It has few calories and can be eaten by both children and adults. In addition, it is very tasty, but it is important to know a few secrets.

Nuances of preparation

  • The number of guests (family members) is equal to the number of pots, Therefore, initially calculate how many of them you will need. Plus, they won’t all fit in the oven at the same time: if pots without handles, 4 will fit, but with handles, no more than three.
  • To make the dish more aromatic and rich in flavor, prepare the marinade for the chicken breast in the oven and soak the meat in it for a couple of hours. You can do without the marinade, but you risk getting a bland taste of the dish.
  • It is not necessary to add liquid to the pot if you are cooking meat with a lot of vegetables. Onions and mushrooms give a lot of juice, but chicken in a pot in the oven with potatoes is cooked only with the addition of broth, otherwise the dish will turn out dry and the potatoes half-raw.
  • Instead of broth, you can add wine diluted with water. The alcohol will evaporate during the cooking process, the meat will be softer, and the dish will acquire an interesting aroma.
  • Do not keep the pots in the oven until the ingredients are completely cooked. 10 minutes before the expected time, take them out and leave them at room temperature. At this time, the dish will “reach” “standard”.

How to choose and use pots

  • It is preferable to prepare the dish in portions, that is, in small containers. Their ideal volume is approximately 500 grams. If you use a large pot, the result may be “soup”, and the presentation will not be as effective and original.
  • The ideal taste is ensured only by ceramic dishes, and glass containers heat up unevenly.
  • Unglazed ceramics inside the container actively absorb odors. Therefore, if you prefer to cook chicken and potatoes in pots in the oven, implement recipes with fish or products with a specific taste in a completely different container.
  • Always place ceramic containers in a cold oven, and when removing it, place it on a wooden stand. This way you will keep them from cracking.
