Directions
Sarasota’s Savory Roasted Chicken, Apples & Onions, Easy flavorful roasted chicken with very little work This is very versatile as in any cut of chicken will work with this recipe, bone in or not, skin on or not, even a whole chicken, but obviously cooking times will differ Also, this not a dish that will do well in the crock pot The key to this dish is the apple glaze on the chicken so don’t skip it The glaze gives a nice golden brown crisp crust which is why this dish really needs to be cooked in the oven Now for the sauce, use a mix of white wine and apple cider, but you can use chicken stock instead of either one, but those 2 ingredients make this dish special Serve this with noodles or wild rice; but I prefer serving this over mashed parsnips or even a simple baked sweet potato on the side , An excellent recipe, with its appley flavours — it smelled heavenly while in the oven! We felt it could do with perhaps a little extra flavour, maybe a seasoned salt instead of plain salt used what you prefer — real cider and wine The apple jelly made a lovely glaze, and maybe I should have left the chicken in the oven longer, for a darker colour, but after nearly 45 minutes it really was done I do think your 30 minutes’ baking time could be a little short used dried thyme as specified, for the glaze, but had to use fresh rosemary for the chicken as fresh thyme was simply not available Thank you for a great recipe!

Serve -- as I Mentioned, I Prefer Mashed Parsnips or Even a Baked Sweet Potato, but, It Is Up to You. Most of the Sauce Will Have Cooked Down, but You Can Always Use Any Leftover Sauce Over the Onions and Apples. Enjoy! |
