Hi Everyone,
What’s Cooking is a series in which I address questions you may have about food and cooking but are too shy to ask.
While we all will be opting for the finer cuts of various meats for the holidays, and searching for exciting recipes, one dish we will definitely be making is baked chicken.
Regardless of the fancy fare on the holiday table, having a dish of baked chicken is a necessary inclusion for two main reasons – it caters to those who do not eat lamb, pork or beef. And it’s one of those safe dishes that almost everyone, except vegetarians of course, enjoys with gusto.
This edition of What’s Cooking seeks to address making flavourful baked chicken that is not dry; baked chicken that makes its own sauce and has an appetizingly rich brown-colour finish.
