- Here is a recipe for clay pots. It is very good. I hope you like it.
-
- 2 tbs flour
- 1 1/2 tsp salt
- dash of pepper
- 1/2 tsp tarragon
- 1 3-lb frying chicken, cut into serving pieces
- 2 tbs olive oil
- juice of half a lemon
- 1 cup sour cream
- 2 oz sharp cheddar cheese, grated
- 1 lb broccoli, washed and separated
-
- Presoak pot, top and bottom, in water for 15 minutes.
-
- Combine flour, pepper, salt and tarragon in a plastic bag, add chicken parts
- and shake to coat the pieces. Put aside any remaining flour mixture.
-
- In a large frying pan, quickly brown the chicken pieces in the olive oil until
- golden in colour.
-
- Place the browned chicken in the presoaked clay pot.
-
- Squeeze the juice of half a lemon over the chicken. Add the drippings from the
- frying pan; combine the sour cream and the rest of the flour mixture together
- and pour over the chicken (this should be thick). Spread the grated cheddar
- cheese over top.
-
- Place covered pot in COLD oven and set the temperature to 450 F degrees.
-
- Cook for 25-30 minutes. Remove the pot from the oven and add the broccoli.
- Recover and place the pot back into the hot oven for 10 minutes (or 5 minutes
- for crunchier vegetables).
-
- Siphon off the excess fat and serve.
-
- Note: if the chicken doesn't look done in 25-30 minutes then cook a few
- minutes longer before adding the broccoli.
-
-
- Hope you enjoy this recipe.
