Rice in pots with chicken

Meat and side dish are baked together - fast, tasty and convenient. I usually cook the chicken and the side dish separately. But in this form - in a pot in the oven - it turns out to save a lot of time, because both the meat and the side dish are baked at the same time. Plus, thanks to the pots, a wonderful, incomparable taste is obtained.

There are an infinite number of ways to prepare dishes. Some of them are specific and characteristic of a particular people, but still fall into culinary collections. The latter were invented relatively recently, but have already managed to acquire a lot of fans around the world. Dishes in pots do not belong to either one or the other, since this method of cooking was characteristic of many nationalities at the dawn of civilization.

It is considered that cooking in pots began in Russia. However, in fact, historians believe that this method of cooking appeared long before the oven appeared. On the hearths, food was cooked in clay pots from time immemorial, just the shape of the vessel had a slightly different look. Initially, its bottom had the shape of a cone in order to make it easier to install in the ash. Later, with the advent of "stoves" and stoves, they began to make "plump" pots with a small bottom and a rather narrow neck. This configuration made it possible to quickly create a microclimate inside the pot. In addition, this form was easily removed from the oven with a grab.
