Delicious recipe: Oven-baked chicken with sweet potato puree and mushrooms Preparation time: 20 minutes Baking time: 40 minutes Total time: 1 hour Servings: 4 This oven-baked chicken recipe is a perfect choice for a family dinner or a special occasion. With a refined blend of flavors and textures, this dish will become a favorite at the table. The chicken will brown perfectly, and the sweet potato puree will add a touch of sweetness, complementing this savory dish. Necessary ingredients: - 1 free-range chicken (or a smaller chicken) - 100 ml olive oil - 100 ml red wine (choose a good wine that is also suitable for drinking) - 2 tablespoons of acacia honey - 1 cube of butter at room temperature - 2 sweet potatoes (orange, for a creamy texture) - 4 large fresh champignon mushrooms - A mix of dried herbs (thyme, rosemary, sage) - Coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper Step by step: 1. Preparing the chicken: Start by washing the chicken well under cold running water. Cut it into suitable pieces, making sure to remove any excess fat. This will help achieve more tender and flavorful meat. 2. Seasoning: In a bowl, mix the softened butter with the herbs, salt, and pepper using clean hands. Rub each piece of chicken with this mixture, ensuring it is evenly coated. This technique will allow the flavors to penetrate deep into the meat. 3. Preparing the baking dish: Grease a baking dish with olive oil, then place the chicken pieces in the dish. Make sure they are arranged evenly to allow for uniform cooking. 4. Baking: Preheat the oven to 180°C (medium heat). Place the dish in the oven and let it bake for 20 minutes. After this time, add the red wine and a little olive oil over the chicken, then continue baking for another 20 minutes. The wine will help enhance the flavors, giving an elegant note to the dish. 5. Glazing: After 40 minutes of baking, use a brush to glaze the chicken pieces with honey. This will create a delicious caramelized crust. Use a spoon to pour the sauce from the dish over the meat, repeating the operation every 10 minutes to ensure an even and appetizing glaze. 6. Preparing the sweet potato puree: Meanwhile, peel the sweet potatoes and cut them into cubes. Boil them in salted water for 15-20 minutes until soft. Drain and mash them with a little butter, adjusting the consistency with milk if necessary. You can also add a dash of nutmeg for extra flavor. 7. The mushrooms: Sauté the champignon mushrooms in a little olive oil in a separate pan until golden. They will add a crunchy texture and a pleasant contrast on the plate. 8. Serving: Once the chicken is browned and caramelized, remove it from the oven and place it on a platter. Serve it alongside the sweet potato puree and sautéed mushrooms. For a splash of color and freshness, add a few slices of pickled beetroot. This dish is not only delicious but also very easy to make. Whether you choose to prepare it for a family dinner or to impress guests, oven-baked chicken with sweet potato puree and mushrooms will surely be a hit. Enjoy your meal!
