- Using the same pan and oil in which the chicken was cooked in, cook the carrot, celery and brussel sprouts, for a few minutes.
- Transfer the vegetables into an oven proof dish and arrange the chicken pieces over the vegetables. Add 100 ml water and cover using al-foil. Bake in the preheated oven at 200ºC for 30 minutes.
- To prepare the sauce: mix the olive oil with the Vegeta Gourmet Stock Powder, lemon juice and cognac.
- After 30 minutes of baking remove the al-foil and spread the sauce over the meat pieces. Return to oven for another 10 minutes, uncovered.
Tip
Adding Vegeta Stock to the recipes in the early stages of cooking brings out the flavour of the ingredients. Adding Vegeta towards the end of recipe preparation provides the aroma and when sprinkled over the meat, it makes it deliciously tasty and crispy.
