Chicken in a baking sleeve

Ingredients

  • Chicken liver (we recommend Petelinka) - 300 grams (for filling)

  • Egg - 1 piece
  • Flour - 1 tbsp. spoon
  • Garlic - 4 cloves
  • Salt, pepper and seasoning - To taste
  • Baking sleeve - 1 piece

Number of servings: 5-7

Preparation

    1. There is a special event ahead, but you don’t know how to surprise your guests? I offer a classic recipe for chicken in a baking sleeve. The meat turns out very juicy and soft. First, prepare the liver by cutting it into small pieces. Season the washed chicken with salt and seasonings to taste.
    2. I cooked the chicken with stuffing - it turns out much tastier this way. To do this, combine the chopped liver with the sauce (flour + egg), mix thoroughly and fill the inside of the chicken with the resulting mixture. The flour will absorb excess moisture and during baking the sauce will soften the filling
    3. Place the carcass in the sleeve; if you wish, you can add lemon slices - this will make the meat even more piquant. The chicken is cooked in a baking sleeve for no more than 1.5 hours at a temperature of 180 degrees. After this time, remove the chicken from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving on a large platter.

As a side dish, you can take potatoes or vegetables, which are also great baked in a sleeve or simply on a baking sheet.

  2. In the meantime, melt the butter and cool it. When the yeast starts working, add sifted flour, butter and a pinch of salt. Start kneading elastic and soft dough.
  3. How to make chicken and mushroom pies soft? It is important not to over-flour the dough. When it's ready, cover it with a towel and put it in a warm place for about 1 hour. This time is enough to prepare the filling.
  4. For the filling, wash and dry the chicken, cut the fillet into small pieces.
    Pour a little vegetable oil into the frying pan and add the chicken there. Add salt and pepper to taste. Fry until done.
  5. Next, also fry the mushrooms and onions in a frying pan, seasoned to taste. Combine mushrooms with chicken and mix thoroughly.
  6. When the dough has increased in volume, it needs to be divided into equal parts (about 16-18 pieces).
  7. Roll each piece into a flat cake and place the filling in the middle.
  8. Carefully seal the edges so that the chicken and mushroom pies do not spread. Place on a greased baking sheet and let them stand for about 5-7 minutes. Then place in a preheated oven and bake until golden brown.

  • Lemon - 1 piece
  • Salt - 1 Kilogram

Preparation

  1. This incredibly easy salt chicken recipe only requires 3 ingredients. In addition, lemon is completely optional, and is not always used. However, lemon provides additional flavor, and if you have it on hand, I still recommend using it.
  2. You really need quite a lot of salt. It must be placed on a baking sheet or in a baking dish and leveled with your hand or a spatula. Don't worry that this amount of salt will make the dish too salty - this is absolutely not the case. The chicken will take exactly as much as she needs and not an ounce more.
  3. The chicken must be washed and dried thoroughly. This is quite important as wet chicken may stick to the salt. If desired, it can be cut, but it looks much more festive in its entirety. Place completely dry chicken on salt, after placing washed and dried lemon in the middle.
  4. The salted chicken is ready and can go into a well-heated oven. No additional marinades or spices are needed anymore. If you wish, of course, you can grease it on top with sour cream or tomato sauce, but thanks to the salt it will be quite juicy and tasty without additional spices.
  5. Depending on the oven and temperature, the dish will be ready in 1-1.5 hours. Then the chicken must be carefully removed from the salt and can be served immediately.

Chicken is an inexpensive product that is accessible to all social strata. This is tasty, light and nutritious meat, which can be recommended for dietary and baby food - depending on the cooking method, of which there are many, many. The chicken can be boiled, stewed, fried, smoked, it can be pre-marinated, it can be used to make amazingly tasty cutlets, baked in batter... There are a hundred more ways to create delicious chicken dishes, both festive and everyday. That is why chicken is one of the most popular ingredients for creating a daily menu.

Chicken can be cooked either as a whole carcass or by cutting it into pieces, the size of which depends on the specific recipe: smaller ones for chakhokhbili or stew, larger ones for roasts. If you bought an ungutted carcass, then you first need to prepare it - cut off the head and legs, remove the entrails, if necessary, clean and singe off excess feathers and hairs and wash. And only after these manipulations can you start preparing the dish.

Some tips:

  • For boiling, you can take an adult chicken - the broth will be richer, but for stewing and frying - a chicken, whose meat is more tender and softer.

  • You can cook anything. But if you live in an “economy” mode and cut up a whole chicken carcass, then send the backbone and breast bones for cooking. You can also add a neck and wings. The remaining pieces are quite suitable for the “second”.

  • If you are preparing jellied meat, then you need to boil the heads and legs, and for richness, any piece of meat from the carcass will do.

  • Often in stores they sell not whole carcasses, but individual parts of them - drumsticks, thighs, necks, breasts, etc. So, from the drumsticks, breasts and wings you will get a lean broth, and from the thighs and back - a fattier one.

  • It is better not to boil the skin, especially thick skin (for example, from the neck), but cut it into pieces and render the fat out of it, then cook chicken or any other dishes (for example, scrambled eggs) on it.

How to cook chicken in the oven

In the oven you can fry, stew or bake chicken in a bag or sleeve, which is very convenient. Chicken pieces are placed in a special baking bag, mixed with salt and spices and placed on a baking sheet. Sometimes it is recommended to pierce the bag - then the chicken will look more like fried. It will be extinguished in the whole package. It’s also delicious, but the dish will be different.


If there is no package, you can simmer in a fireproof container under a lid, adding a little water, and fry without a lid and without water, only in fat. You can salt the raw carcass, but sprinkle with spices just before cooking. This is done so that the spices do not lose their beneficial properties during heat treatment.

You can also cook a whole chicken in the oven, for example, stuffed with buckwheat, rice or apples. The prepared carcass is salted, peppered inside and out, stuffed with half-cooked cereal or a raw apple, sewn up and placed on a baking sheet. The chicken should be periodically basted with drained fat and juice. This dish takes about an hour or a little more to prepare.

How to cook chicken in a frying pan

It is better to fry in a frying pan, and not chicken, but chicken. The first method is fried tobacco chicken. A small chicken carcass is roasted whole under pressure. The chicken must first be salted, peppered and seasoned with spices - either spicy or hot. Flatten the carcass and place it in a well-heated frying pan with fat, belly down, press down on top with a lid and place a load - a small stone, a weight or a pan of water. After about 10 minutes, turn the chicken over and cook the back. Sprinkle the finished chicken with herbs and serve with raw vegetables.


You don’t have to bother with the load and fry the chicken pieces in the usual way - on one side and the other until golden brown, making sure that the thick pieces are properly fried. Always fry over medium heat and without a lid, turning the pieces regularly so that they do not burn.

How to cook chicken in batter

Batter is a liquid dough into which pieces of chicken, meat or fish are dipped and fried in boiling vegetable oil. A very tasty dish, which is often served at a festive table, business banquet or buffet. Cooking chicken in batter is not difficult, but you need to tinker.


For batter, it is best to use breast or thigh fillets. Prepare the dough as for pancakes - an egg, half a glass of something milky, flour and salt - enough for fillet from one carcass. You can add turmeric to the dough for color and a few other spices for taste, but this is not at all necessary.

Dip a piece of meat into the dough and immediately lower it into hot oil. The point is for the piece to float there and not lie at the bottom of the pan. Fry on both sides for a minute.

How to cook grilled chicken

Grilled chicken at home can only be cooked if you have an oven with a grill function or a separate device. The grilled chicken is fried whole, placing the carcass on a spit and securing the sides with special forks. The spit rotates slowly, so the chicken cooks evenly. The raw carcass should be salted and peppered before frying.


Under the chicken you need to place a baking sheet or any fireproof container into which juice and fat will drip. Cooking time is about 30-40 minutes. You can serve raw vegetables and herbs as a side dish.

How to cook chicken in a slow cooker

A multicooker is a salvation for the housewife. Even the simplest models have basic modes that perform the functions of a stove: frying, stewing, cooking.

Boiled chicken. It is very convenient to cook poultry in a slow cooker. If you need a first course, then it is most convenient to cook it in a slow cooker. The whole carcass is usually not boiled: it is cut into pieces, after which it is immersed in water, closed with a lid and the “Cooking” or “Soup” mode is turned on (depending on the multicooker model). If you cook an adult chicken, you need about 30-40 minutes. Perhaps a little more, depending on the size and toughness of the meat. For broiler chicken, 10-15 minutes is enough.


Stewed chicken. It's good to stew chicken in a slow cooker. Cut it into portions, add water or broth to cover the bottom of the bowl, you can immediately add salt, put it in the “Stew” mode and go about your business. If desired, you can add garlic, spices and herbs to the finished stewed chicken for flavor and let it sit for a few minutes.

You can stew the chicken either alone or with other ingredients, such as potatoes, vegetables or rice. The potatoes should be peeled and cut a little larger than for soup (about half the size of a matchbox), mixed with the same pieces of chicken and simmered together. If we cook with rice, then first simmer the chicken until half cooked, and then add rice to it, which takes 6 minutes until fully cooked, while the chicken takes a little longer.

How to cook chicken in the microwave

A microwave is a convenient device for those who don’t have time to do magic in the kitchen and look for new recipes. The dishes there turn out delicious, they are prepared very quickly: I threw the ingredients into the bowl, turned on the desired mode and forgot for 20 minutes. In the microwave you can stew, fry, and bake - it all depends on the selected mode. As a rule, a book with recipes is included with each oven and there are a great many ways to cook chicken there.

How to cook chicken in a jar

Chicken in a can is essentially stewed chicken in the oven. Instead of a duckling pan or stewpan, use a glass jar. There are no fundamental differences, but often it is the jar that comes to the rescue if, for some reason, there is no fireproof container on hand for extinguishing. There are a few rules to follow when cooking chicken in a jar.


  • The jar must only be placed in a cold oven, otherwise it will burst.

  • The temperature in the oven should not exceed 180° for the same reason - the glass may not withstand it and burst.

  • It is better to take out the finished chicken when the oven has completely cooled down and the jar becomes warm or moderately hot, but not scalding.

  • There should be no paper stickers or plastic inserts on the jar itself.

  • The container does not need to be filled to the top - when stewing, the chicken meat will release juice, and if the dish is full, the juice will flow out.

  • For stewing, you can use both fillet and chicken on the bones. You can add potatoes, onions, carrots. It is convenient to pre-marinate the meat in the same jar for half an hour to an hour, and then put it in the oven. There is no need to add any water or additional fat.

What does chicken go with?

An ideal side dish would be mashed potatoes, stewed vegetables, rice, buckwheat or boiled pasta. If the chicken is fried, then it would be nice to add some sauce so that the second one is not dry. An excellent side dish would be any summer salad or just sliced ​​raw vegetables - cucumbers, tomatoes, bell peppers, radishes. Greens: parsley, cilantro, dill, lettuce.


The benefits of chicken meat

Chicken is a dietary product, but not all its parts are. Thus, boiled white breast meat is indicated for any diet - for weight loss and diseases of the digestive system, for diabetes, for pregnant and lactating women. Small children and old people can be given minced chicken breast. Athletes are recommended to eat it, as it contains a lot of protein, which is necessary during heavy physical activity.

For anemia, it is useful to eat chicken liver.

Chicken feet contain collagen, which means that regularly eating this seemingly low-grade product can significantly improve the condition of your skin.


Chicken broth is indispensable for colds and recovery processes after a serious illness or surgery.

But there are also disadvantages that are easy to eliminate. It is recommended to first soak poultry purchased from poultry farms in cold water for about an hour or two so that all harmful substances, such as antibiotics, are released. You can drain the first broth after boiling for 1-1.5 minutes and cook again. But this is only before cooking.

The chicken is the nurse. Probably no other product provides such a variety of dishes as chicken. Experiment, look for your own recipe and let it be delicious.
