BROWN - BAG CHICKEN
Yield 6-8 servings
Number Of Ingredients 13
Steps:
- 1. Place the oven rack in the lower third of the oven. Be sure to allow plenty of space so that the brown bag does not come in contact with the sides, top or bottom of the oven. 2. Heat oven to 450 degrees F. 3. Fold the wing tips back and under the bird (not necessary but it makes for a nicer presentation). Place the bird in a 13x9x2-inch baking dish or equivalent. 4. Peel and chop the garlic. 5. In a large bowl, mix the sherry, garlic, paprika, marjoram, and salt together. 6. Rub the spice mixture all over the chicken and in the chicken cavity, leaving about 1 tablespoon in the bowl. 7. Remove the core and membranes from the red bell pepper. Remove the skin from the onion. Trim the root end from the carrot. Cut the red bell pepper, onion, carrot and potatoes into 1-inch chunks and toss them in the bowl with the remaining spice mixture. Add the olives, almonds, and sun-dried tomatoes with a spoonful of their oil, and mix all to coat thoroughly. 8. Lift the chicken and spoon the vegetables around and under the bird. 9. Carefully slide the pan into a clean, brown paper grocery bag. Today's markets are using shorter bags. If the bag is not long enough to fold over the end, then carefully turn the pan around 90 degrees in the bag and then fold and staple the end shut. 10. Place the bag in the oven (make sure the bag does not rest against the top or sides of the oven). Bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes. 11. Carefully remove the bag from oven. Cut open the bag. Let the chicken sit for 10 minutes before serving. Spoon the vegetables on a platter and top with pieces or slices of the chicken.
