I love such recipes from the category of 2 in 1, when the second and the side dish are ready at the same time and you do not need to mess with each of them separately. While the chicken is marinating, the side dish is quickly prepared, and then it remains only to put it in the oven and forget for 50 minutes. And at the exit we get a delicious dish, which we spent a minimum of time and effort on.

Keep in mind that everyone's ovens are different. The temperature and cooking time may differ from those specified in the recipe. To make any baked dish successful, use useful information about the features of ovens !

Root vegetables are best washed with a brush or a stiff sponge under running water.

Chicken can be replaced with turkey or any other type of meat at your request. But keep in mind that in this case, the cooking time and calorie content of the dish will change.

If necessary, you can cover the baking dish with a sheet of foil so that the chicken does not burn on top.
