    When the chicken is marinated, spread it on the vegetables, add a little water (about 1/3 ct-na) and put it in a preheated oven to 200 degrees.

    We put the chicken pieces into plates, put the vegetables on top, pour the sauce from the mold in which the chicken was baked. Any porridge, rice, mashed potatoes can be served as a side dish. The side dish can also be poured with vegetable sauce. Fried potatoes can also be a side dish to such a chicken. While the chicken is baking, you can prepare a side dish and a salad of fresh vegetables. So dinner is ready.

If desired, you can increase the number of vegetables for the "vegetable pillow". The dish will only benefit from this. You can use your favorite seasonings and spices.

For the festive table, we put the chicken on a dish and also put vegetables on top and pour sauce over it. Decorate with greenery.
