BAKED CHICKEN WITH HERBS

A very easy, delicious chicken dish. It is much better if you use fresh herbs, but if you can't get them, dried herbs work too. A variation on the recipe found in The Kosher Palette.

Categories     Chicken

Time 1h40m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 whole chicken, cut in quarters or eighths
1 teaspoon pepper
4 teaspoons tarragon, divided
4 teaspoons chives, divided
4 teaspoons parsley, divided
1/2 cup margarine
1/2 cup dry wine
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
paprika

Steps:

  • Combine pepper and 2 tsp EACH of the herbs in a ziploc bag. (The original recipe called for 1 cup of flour and 1 tsp salt in addition to this stuff, but I have left them out to accomodate special diets and it worked well without them.).
  • Add the chicken, a few pieces at a time, and shake to coat well.
  • Place chicken in large roasting pan, skin side up.
  • Combine margarine, wine, lemon juice and the remaining 2 tsp of each herb in a small saucepan. Heat on a medium flame, stirring, until well combined.
  • Pour over chicken, cover with foil.
  • Bake at 375F for one hour covered; then remove cover, sprinkle with paprika and bake another 30 minutes or so, until chicken is done and lightly browned.
