Buckwheat with shin in the oven

Two in one: garnish and meat are cooked at the same time. I just love it when meat is cooked together with a side dish at the same time. It's just some kind of holiday. Firstly, the taste of the side dish will be significantly enriched. And secondly, (and I especially like this), a significant part of the time is saved.

  1. Step 1:

    Step 1.

    How to make buckwheat with shin in the oven? Wash the chicken drumsticks and blot them with a paper towel. Heat 1.5 tablespoons of sunflower oil in a frying pan. Fry the chicken on all sides until golden brown.

  2. Step 2:

    Step 2.

    At this time, rinse the buckwheat under running water. It's convenient for me to do it in a colander.

  3. Step 3:

    Step 3.

    Peel the carrots and chop them into small cubes. Grease the bottom of the baking dish with 0.5 tablespoons of sunflower oil. Pour in the raw buckwheat. Lightly salt it. Spread the carrots on top. And put the chicken drumsticks on top.

  4. Step 4:

    Step 4.

    Season the chicken with Italian herbs, add salt. Wash the chili pepper, cut off the stack. Remove the seeds. And send a few rings of pepper to the dish. Focus on your taste.

  5. Step 5:

    Step 5.

    Wash the tomato, remove the stalk. Cut into small pieces and send to the blender bowl. It is necessary to grind the tomato to a homogeneous liquid state. Rub a clove of garlic there.

  6. Step 6:

    Step 6.

    Pour tomato-garlic sauce over the chicken with buckwheat. Add water. It is important here that the buckwheat is slightly covered with liquid. Otherwise, she simply won't have time to prepare. 30 minutes of baking at a temperature of 200 degrees was enough for me.

The option when you don't need to surprise anyone with dizzying culinary turns, but you simply need to feed them quickly and deliciously. Buckwheat with chicken will definitely help to cope with this task.
It is better to dry the shins before roasting. This is necessary so that the water, once in the hot oil, shoots less in different directions.
You can remove the skin from the legs. This will help to significantly reduce the calorie content of the dish.
If you are worried that raw buckwheat will not have time to reach readiness, it is better to hedge and pre-soak it in warm water for 15 minutes. And put it in a half-finished form. Or you can immediately wrap the mold with foil. And 5-10 minutes before it is ready, remove it and turn on the Grill mode in the oven so that the chicken turns brown.
The dish turns out to be hearty and delicious. A little insular due to chili pepper.
Therefore, adjust the amount of pepper at your discretion, since everyone has their own sensitivity to spicy. For someone, a small piece the size of a seed is enough, and someone will not refuse a whole pod.
Carrots give the dish sweetness, tomatoes, in turn, sourness. And garlic and chicken are generally best friends.
Bon appetit!
