Pioneer Chicken
- Ready In:
- 2hrs 40mins
- Ingredients:
- 10
- Yields:
-
1 panfull
- Serves:
- 6-8
ingredients
- 3 lbs chicken, cut into 8 pieces (when you cut the wings be sure to include a little breast meat with them)
- 2 potatoes, white russet, peeled
- 2 potatoes, sweet, peeled
- 1 large onion, sliced
- 1 tablespoon rosemary, fresh chopped
- 2 garlic cloves, smashed, to flavor oil
- kosher salt
- cracked pepper
- 1 lemon, sliced thin
- olive oil
directions
- Preheat oven to 325*.
- Wash and dry chicken pieces.
- Slice each potato into 4 long slices.
- Saute the garlic in olive oil. Remove garlic and discard.
- Brown chicken pieces well in olive oil but don't cook through. Remove to a dish and season with salt and pepper.
- In a baking dish, alternate a piece of chicken, a slice of sweet potato, a slice of white potato and a few rings of onion. I usually stand them on edge so they are not flat in the pan.
- Decorate the top of the chicken with the lemon slices and rosemary.
- Cover with foil, tightly. Place baking pan on a sheet pan (it may boil over - I sometimes use a turkey baster to draw off the juices - save them and boil them down to make a nice sauce for the top) and bake for two hours or until the chicken is cooked through. Uncover and bake until it browns a little, 20 minutes or so. Save a wing for me!

Hello Zaars and Zaarinas!
Thank all of you who tried my 'memory' recipes and left such nice reviews and for taking such lovely pictures. I do appreciate your comments.
My pet peeves about cooking are recipe reviews where the reviewer says, "I made the recipe exactly as written EXCEPT yada yada yada" and I don't like suggestive names or titles such as, "Better Than Sex". I don't know why anyone would eat anything that is 'sinful' or 'decadent' since decadent is described as being decaying. Also, PAP-RI-KA only has 3 syllables. VINAIGRETTE is pronounced vin-a-grette, not vinager-ette. It's mas-car-pone not mars-ca-pone. And I don't like cutesy adult baby talk,,, or metro chic names like delish, nutrish, yummo, sammy, BAM! Oh well, I make as many, or more, faux pas as the next guy especially in ASL!
