This recipe uses chicken legs, but you can cook the chicken whole or shredded if you prefer. Salt the meat before cooking

Then you need to cut the baking bag to the required length. It is recommended to tie the ends tightly

Cut all vegetables into medium-sized pieces, and potatoes into larger pieces. Place chopped vegetables and chicken in a sleeve, tie at the other end and place on a prepared baking sheet.

The next step is to place the food in the oven, which should first be preheated to 150 °C. The dish needs to be prepared for at least 40 minutes.

Chicken legs in the oven with potatoes

The main advantage of chicken is that it can be combined with almost any ingredients. In the next recipe we will cook chicken legs along with potatoes.

Ingredients:

12 chicken legs
1 onion
10 potatoes
1 carrot
3 cloves garlic
Vegetable or olive oil
2 tbsp. l soy sauce
2 tbsp. l natural honey
1 tsp black pepper
Salt to taste
For spices, you can use various ready-made seasonings or herbs

Preparation

After freezing, products lose their beneficial properties, so it is recommended to use chilled meat for cooking. But if you purchased frozen chicken, then you need to defrost it naturally, that is, gradually at room temperature.

Then rinse your feet well and let the liquid drain in a colander. The skin can be removed if desired.

After this, wash and peel the potatoes. But some people prefer this vegetable in its skin; in addition, the peel contains fiber and many vitamins. In this case, it is enough to peel the potatoes with a hard sponge to get rid of dirt

Wash the carrots and remove the top layer. Peel onions and garlic

Now you need to start marinating the chicken. Prepare a separate bowl, add honey, soy sauce, oil and spices. If necessary, sprinkle with a little salt.

Drumsticks or thighs in puff pastry

An original and very tasty dish! I cook it not only for dinner or lunch, but also for the holiday table when guests come to us. It not only looks beautiful, but is also very tasty. Be sure to try cooking, especially since it is very easy and does not require much time.

7 drumsticks;
1-2 liters of puff pastry;
1 tsp. spices for chicken;
1 tsp. khmeli-suneli;
½ tsp. black pepper;
3 cloves of garlic;
1 tsp. salt;
1 yolk;
3-5 tbsp. l. raises oils

Place the prepared drumsticks in a bowl, add garlic, salt, seasoning for chicken, pepper, suneli hops and just a little oil so that it binds the spices.

Mix everything thoroughly so that the legs are completely covered with seasonings on all sides.

Leave to marinate for 30 minutes at room temperature. If you want to marinate longer, be sure to place the bowl of drumsticks in the refrigerator.

When the legs are marinated, fry them in a dry frying pan or with the addition of a small amount of oil.

Fry on all sides until fully cooked. After you turn the drumsticks over to the other side, cover them with a lid and fry for 10-15 minutes.

Cool the finished drumsticks a little. And during this time we will do the dough.

Lightly roll out the layers of puff pastry until they are 3-5 mm thick. You don’t need to roll it out too hard or too thin, otherwise the dough won’t rise and won’t be tender.

Using a sharp knife, cut into long strips 2-3 cm wide.

Grease a baking sheet with oil and preheat the oven to 200°.

We wrap each leg with a strip of dough in a spiral.

Brush with egg, place them on a baking sheet and bake for 30 minutes.

The dough turns out so soft and tender that it is even impossible to cut it. The meat inside turns out very juicy, soft and incredibly tasty!

Onions and mushrooms cubes mode.

First fry the onion in oil, then add the mushrooms to it. After all the liquid has evaporated, fry for another 3-5 minutes and turn off.

Salt and pepper the prepared mushrooms and mix well. Let them cool slightly and add to the chopped meat.

Grate the cheese on a coarse grater and add it to the meat and mushrooms. Mix everything thoroughly so that all components are evenly distributed. Salt, pepper, add turmeric, paprika and mix everything again.

Using a teaspoon, stuff the chicken drumsticks.

Cover the filling with the free edge of the skin and tuck it inside.

Grease a baking sheet with oil, lay out the stuffed legs and grease them with sour cream. If desired, sprinkle paprika on top. It will give a beautiful color and a sweet taste.

Place the pan in the oven and bake at 180° for approximately 25-30 minutes.

Place the finished legs on a plate and decorate with herbs.

I don’t throw away the gravy that remains from baking, but strain it through a sieve and serve it in a saucepan on the table as a sauce. If desired, you can add a little regular or grain mustard to it.
