Chicken stewed in the oven

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 1 hr 40 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make chicken stew in the oven? Prepare all the necessary ingredients.

2. STEP 2

   

   Wash the chicken in running water, dry and cut into portions. Place chicken in a bowl.

3. STEP 3

   

   Wash the lemon thoroughly. Pour lemon juice over the chicken pieces and stir.

4. STEP 4

   

   Add salt and pepper.

5. STEP 5

   

   Add your favorite spices - I really love Provençal herbs, which go great with chicken.

6. STEP 6

   

   Add paprika.

7. STEP 7

   

   Pour in soy sauce. Here it does not play the main role; I added just a little bit of it so that all the spices were better distributed throughout the chicken.

8. STEP 8

   

   Mix well. In principle, the chicken can be prepared in this form the day before and left in the refrigerator overnight, so it can be marinated and soaked in spices. But to be honest, I didn’t do this and baked it right away.

9. STEP 9

   

   Peel the onion, rinse and cut into half rings.

10. STEP 10

    

    Peel the garlic and cut into slices.

11. STEP 11

    

    Take a baking dish. Place onions on the bottom of the pan.

12. STEP 12

    

    Next, spread out the garlic.

13. STEP 13

    

    If desired, place a few bay leaves on top.

14. STEP 14

    

    Place chicken pieces on top.

15. STEP 15

    

    Pour a glass of water into the baking dish.

16. STEP 16

    

    Cover with foil and place in an oven preheated to 180 degrees for about 1.5 hours. The times are approximate, be guided by the operating characteristics of your oven. For more information on using aluminum foil and how different ovens work, see the separate articles at the end of this recipe.

17. STEP 17

    

    Even under the foil, the chicken acquired a golden brown crust. If this does not happen for you, then keep the chicken in the oven for another 15 minutes without foil so that it browns slightly.

18. STEP 18

    

    Bon appetit!

Chicken stewed in the oven is a great option for dinner! I divided the chicken into parts. For spices, I used Provençal herbs, soy sauce, paprika, salt, a mixture of peppers, and bay leaf. I cut the onion into half rings and the garlic into slices. I mixed the spices, seasoned the chicken and left for 30 minutes. Placed chopped onion and garlic in the pan. Chicken pieces on top. Added water. Cover the form with foil and simmer at 180° for 1.5 hours, then open the foil for another 10 minutes. The chicken turned out appetizing, tender and very tasty! Thanks to the author for the recipe and I recommend it for cooking 👍

I made oven-braised chicken for dinner and served it with mashed potatoes. I had chicken legs that I washed, dried and marinated in soy sauce, garlic, lemon juice, Italian herbs and rosemary. I placed onion half rings and garlic at the bottom of the form under the legs, laid the pickled legs on top and also laid out slices of garlic on top for beauty. I baked it in the oven for an hour with foil and another 20 minutes without foil. The aroma was magical. The chicken legs turned out beautiful, aromatic and very tasty. Lemon juice perfectly enhances the taste of chicken meat. With garlic, herbs and rosemary, the chicken turned out incredibly tasty and aromatic. It's hard to tear yourself away from such delicious meat. It is soft, juicy and tender. Great recipe! Many thanks to the author 😊
