Provided by Florence Fabricant

Categories     dinner, casseroles, main course

Time 1h40m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 small (4 pound) roasting chicken, trussed
Salt and freshly ground pepper
2 cups drained, tightly packed sauerkraut (reserve 1/4 cup of juice)
2 tablespoons cooking oil
3 tablespoons butter
1 cup chopped onion
1 clove garlic, minced
1 bay leaf
1/2 cup dry vermouth
1 cup chicken stock
1 tablespoon cornstarch

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Wipe chicken inside and out and season the cavity with salt and pepper.
  • Rinse the sauerkraut in cold water and drain well.
  • Heat the oil and one tablespoon of butter in a large oven-proof casserole and brown the chicken on all sides. Be careful not to break the skin. Remove the chicken and set aside. Pour off the fat from the casserole.
  • Heat the two tablespoons of butter in the casserole and saute the onion over medium heat until soft. Add the sauerkraut and garlic and cook a few minutes longer. Spread the sauerkraut over the bottom of the casserole and place the chicken on top of it. Put the bay leaf on the chicken, pour the vermouth around the chicken, bring to a simmer, cover and place in oven to roast for one hour.

  • Use a Dutch oven or large pot that can hold all of the ingredients. This will help to ensure that the sauerkraut and chicken cook evenly.
  • If you don't have a Dutch oven, you can use a large skillet or frying pan. However, you may need to cook the sauerkraut and chicken in batches.
  • Be sure to drain the sauerkraut well before adding it to the pot. This will help to prevent the casserole from becoming too watery.
  • If you don't have any cooked chicken on hand, you can use rotisserie chicken or leftover chicken from another meal.
  • Feel free to add other vegetables to the casserole, such as carrots, celery, or potatoes.
  • Serve the sauerkraut and chicken casserole with mashed potatoes, rice, or egg noodles.

Conclusion:

Sauerkraut and chicken casserole is a hearty and flavorful dish that is perfect for a cold winter night. It is also a great way to use up leftover chicken. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can have a delicious and satisfying meal that the whole family will enjoy.
