The chicken on the jar in the oven is juicy from the inside and at the same time with a fried crust, which may not be when baking in a bag or foil. This recipe is suitable for both adherents of a healthy, dietary diet, and for those who like to eat delicious food.

Dark beer recipe step by step
The most interesting and masculine option is a chicken recipe in the oven on a bottle with dark beer.
For cooking you will need:
- one chicken 1-2 kg;
- 500 ml of dark beer;
- 1 tbsp. a spoon of honey;
- 1 tbsp. a spoonful of oil;
- 4 cloves of garlic;
- Zira, paprika, coriander, cinnamon, Provence herbs - all to taste. You can add greens.
As you can see, the components are absolutely simple. Meanwhile, some recommend adding mustard to the composition. But the cooks deny the benefit of mustard extracts for chicken - it corrodes the structure and makes chicken stiff. For baking, this composition is not suitable.
Cooking
- Whole chicken whole in a lemon marinade, which we described above. As an option - just in a saline solution of 2 liters of water and 3 tbsp. tablespoons of salt.
- After an hour, get the carcass and coat it with a mixture of spices, crushed garlic and honey.
- Remove the cap, labels and pour half of the beer from the glass beer bottle.
- Without whipping beer foam, pour 1 tbsp. Through the neck a spoonful of dried herbs (spices).
- Put chicken on the bottle.
- Prepare a baking sheet - pour a mixture of water and remaining beer into it.
- Place the chicken bottle on a baking sheet in a cold oven. Remember that you can’t put glass in a hot roasting pan - it just bursts.
- Bake chicken at 200 degrees for about an hour. If the chicken has not previously been marinated, then 1.5 hours or more. If the meat begins to bake very quickly, it is worth wrapping it with foil on top.
- When ready, pull out the chicken and remove from the bottle by cutting the thighs. Serve in slices with a side dish of potatoes, horns, rice or buckwheat.
Chicken and Potato Recipe
You can also fry chicken in the oven entirely on a jar with potatoes. To do this, it is necessary to repeat all the steps in the same way, only replace the beer with water, and when preparing the baking sheet, put potatoes cut into strips instead of water on it.
You will need:
- 1 chicken (chicken);
- 5 potatoes;
- 3 cloves of garlic;
- mayonnaise;
- 2 bell peppers;
- 1 onion;
- 1 carrot
- allspice and 2 bay leaves;
- salt pepper.
Cooking
- Rub the chicken with a mixture of salt, mayonnaise, pepper and garlic.
- Cut potatoes, onions, peppers and carrots into small strips and spread on a baking sheet.
- We take a liter jar (bottle) and fill it with three glasses of water, throwing there also pepper, bay leaf or a mixture of herbs.
- We put the chicken on a jar, after tying the legs and wings with threads for compactness. We put on a baking sheet with vegetables, pouring it with 1 glass of water.
- In the cold oven we “sit” the resulting structure and bake at 180 degrees for 1.5 hours. When the chicken begins to bake, it will give juice - it drains onto a baking sheet and soaks the potatoes.
- We check readiness by piercing meat with a wooden stick. If clear juice comes out, you're done. It is also advisable to wrap the chicken with foil when burning the crust.
In general, the algorithm itself, how to bake chicken in the oven on a jar or a bottle, is so simple and so easy to remember that everyone can cook this dish. In addition, you can always change the types of sauces, marinades and side dishes - and this means the variety of your table!
