The wife and I wanted to make some roast chicken yesterday, but we were not the only ones with that idea, sellout everywhere. So we got a nice whole breast on the bone which worked out fine, too.
As with the all roast dishes, we went for a basic preparation to keep most of the natural taste intact. As a side dish, we went for a cucumber salad, made by the wife, and fries. Desert was a so-called bavarian cream dessert which came pre-manufactured with only the cream left to be prepared.
These were the ingredients for two persons:
For the chicken breast and salad:
One whole chicken breast on the bone, with skin,
salt, pepper, paprika powder, i garlic clove, neutral oil
one cucumber,
1 teaspoon hot mustard,
1 tablespoon vinegar,
3 tablespoons of neutral oil,
2 tablespoons salt (not pictured).
Dessert:
(pack of stuff, milk and cream)
Preparation is simple. First wash the chicken breast and dry it with a paper towel. Make a dressing from salt, pepper, paprika powder, chopped garlic and oil, then put the breast in it and let it marinate for an hour or two:
In the meanwhile, prepare the dessert (check the new mixer, yeah!;))
When the chicken has marinated for one or two hours, put it in the stove at 200 degrees celsius for 30-45 minutes. Put an oven pan filled with water under the grill, so the dripping oil and juices are contained. Brush down the breast with the leftover marinade every 5 minutes or so, no need to turn over the breast whil in the oven btw:
Now for the cucmber salad, courtesy of the wife. peel the cucumber, cut it to thin slices, then cure it with some salt for 30 minutes. Do not use the small part at the top of the cucumber, as it tends to taste bitter:
Mix the cucmbers with the mustard, vinegar and oil, finish it off with some dill:
Finish Line:
When the skin on the chicken breast gets crisp, turn off the heat in the oven and prepare the fries. While the fries are going, take out the chicken breast and cut out the fillets:
DONE!
Serve hot and enjoy!
Dessert:
