Chicken in its own juice in the oven

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   How to bake a chicken in its own juice? Prepare everything you need for this. For baking, you can use any part of the chicken - the shins, thighs or wings. Or you can take a whole carcass and chop it into pieces. Peel the onion and carrot and rinse in running water from dirt.

2. Step 2:

   

   Garlic, also, peel, and then finely chop or pass through a press. Add olive oil, salt and pepper to the garlic. Mix everything together. Leave to stand for 15 minutes. At this time, prepare the chicken.

3. Step 3:

   

   Wash the chicken carcass in running water and dry it with a paper towel to remove excess moisture. Then chop the chicken into pieces and put it in a deep bowl.

4. Step 4:

   

   Put all the prepared marinade on the chicken and mix so that the chicken is evenly covered with it. In this form, leave the chicken to stand for 30 minutes.

5. Step 5:

   

   At this time, prepare the vegetables. Cut the carrots into rings or just large pieces. Cut the onion into half rings. It is not necessary to chop the vegetables very finely, otherwise they will completely boil when stewing.

7. Step 6:

   

   Mix chicken with vegetables.

8. Step 7:

   

   Then put the chicken and vegetables in a baking dish. I have a ceramic mold. Also, you can use glass or metal.

9. Step 8:

   

   Cover the mold with a lid and put it in the oven, preheated to 180 degrees for 1.5 hours. Instead of a lid, you can use foil, tightly closing the mold with it. No need to add water. Chicken and vegetables will have enough moisture to cook. Given that the mold will be closed, moisture will not evaporate. Therefore, the chicken is perfectly cooked in its own juice.

10. Step 9:

    

    Remove the finished dish from the oven. Do not open the lid immediately. Let it stand for a while so that the first heat comes out of the mold. After 5-7 minutes, you can remove the lid. Be careful - it's very hot!

11. Step 10:

    

    Put the finished chicken on plates and add any side dish and fresh vegetables. In my opinion, boiled potatoes are enough here. Bon appetit!
