CHICKEN NORMANDY Serves 4
If they’re available, choose Rome Beauty apples for this
recipe. Romes have a somewhat flat, mealy taste when eaten
raw, but their flavor develops a wonderful richness when
cooked. They’re available from October until early Summer.
The Golden Delicious, the Cortland, the Jonathan, and the
Granny Smith are also good for baking. The Red Delicious
apples, by the way, are only fair for cooking.
1 chicken, cut in serving pieces (about 3 pounds)
Ground pepper to taste
vegetable cooking spray
2 medium apples, cored and sliced
1 large onion, sliced
1/2 cup apple cider or juice
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 teaspoons brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
Preheat oven to 350F. Sprinkle chicken pieces with pepper
to taste.
Spray 13 by 9-inch baking dish with vegetable cooking
spray. Arrange chicken in baking dish; scatter apple and
onion slices around and on top of chicken. In cup, combine
cider, lemon juice, oil, sugar and allspice; pour over
chicken. Bake, uncovered, for about 1 hour or until
chicken is cooked through and apples are tender, turning
pieces once during cooking and basting occasionally with
drippings. To serve, remove chicken from pan juices and
spoon apples and onions on top.
