Smothered Chicken image

This is an easy recipe I got from a cookbook. "Old Fashioned Country Cooking" found at Cracker Barrel. I was a beginner or close to it when I tried it and it is no fail. I always liked it best because it is an one-pot meal and you can forget about it for 2 hours. The chicken is always moist.

Categories     Whole Chicken

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 tablespoons vinegar
1 (3 1/2 lb) broiler chickens (any whole chicken will do)
4 stalks celery
4 potatoes, peeled and quartered
1 small onion, sliced
to taste carrot (optional)
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Place the vinegar in the bottom of a deep ovenproof casserole dish or Dutch oven with a cover. Add chicken and surround with vegetables. Add seasonings to taste. Cover tightly and roast at 350* for 1 hour.
  • The meat will be moist and juicy without having a strong vinegar taste.
  • I learned to not go by the cooking time of this recipe. It is best to go by the estimated time on the chicken wrapper for the weight of the chicken.
  • I could never find a 3 1/2-pound chicken, only larger.
