Chicken fillet in a sleeve in the oven

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 1 hr

1. STEP 1

   

   How to bake chicken fillet in a sleeve in the oven? Prepare all the necessary ingredients. If the chicken fillet is large, then two breasts will be enough. If the pieces are small, take three. Then you will get three servings at once. If you do not have a fillet, but a whole breast on the bone, then you can simply cut it in half and separate the fillet from the bones.

2. STEP 2

   

   Rinse the chicken fillet thoroughly and dry with paper towels. I also usually cut off the fatty layers along the sides of the fillet and remove the thin films around the meat.

3. STEP 3

   

   Season the chicken on all sides with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with Provençal herbs.!!! If you have a mixture of Provencal herbs, then read the composition of this mixture. If it already contains salt and pepper, then you should not add additional salt and pepper to the chicken - it will be too hot and salty. There was nothing in my mixture except herbs, so I salted and peppered the meat separately.

4. STEP 4

   

   Sprinkle ground sweet paprika on top of the fillet and leave the meat to marinate for 30 minutes.

5. STEP 5

   

   Place the chicken in a baking sleeve and pour vegetable oil inside it. Tie the ends of the sleeve tightly on both sides. I did this with twine. Make several cuts on the top of the sleeve with scissors or a knife to allow steam to escape. Try not to make cuts on the sides, because during baking the chicken will release juice that will pour out through the side cuts. This will help reduce moisture in the sleeve and dry the bird.

6. STEP 6

   

   Place the sleeve with the chicken on a baking sheet or in a baking dish. Bake the chicken fillet in an oven preheated to 200°C for about 30-35 minutes. Determine the exact baking time and temperature based on your oven.

7. STEP 7

   

   Remove the finished chicken fillet from the oven, carefully so as not to get burned by the steam, cut the sleeve at the top and open it. Transfer the chicken to plates and serve. Bon appetit!

This is not the first time I have made this wonderful recipe. And I forgot about the dry chicken breasts. The recipe is a find. Your active participation is only five minutes, rinse, blot, roll in spices, put in a sleeve. All! I added more dried garlic and oil to the bowl with the spices so that each piece was evenly coated. Juicy, tender, aromatic, healthy chicken meat is ready. While it's baking, you can chop the vegetable salad and enjoy. The meat melts in your mouth. Many thanks to the author of the recipe Chicken fillet in a sleeve in the oven, cook with pleasure.

I had previously heard about baking in a sleeve, but somehow I never tried to cook it. I prepared the first one in this way; it turned out to be the most tender juicy meat soaked in seasonings. I usually don’t like fillet because it’s dry, but I’ll cook it this way now. It's also suitable for salads. Thank you very much for the recipe!
