Fragrant buckwheat with chicken in the oven: a recipe for the perfect dinner

Even your favorite dishes are sometimes boring. In such cases, you can make your own adjustments to the recipe, or prepare the dish in a slightly different way. Let's take the usual buckwheat and chicken. You can boil the porridge and fry the meat separately, but it is much better to combine the foods together, supplement them with juicy vegetables and aromatic spices, and then bake in the oven. Soaked in chicken broth and vegetable juice, porridge turns out to be especially tasty and appetizing.

Step-by-step recipe for buckwheat with chicken in the oven

I never thought about whether it is possible to cook buckwheat in any other way than cooking in a saucepan on the stove. My interest in creating dishes in the oven is growing every day, so I decided to see if there are recipes for cooking aromatic cereals adapted for this wonderful kitchen helper. As it turned out, there are such options, with a large number. One of them has already been repeatedly tried by my household and is included in the list of favorite lunch dishes.

Ingredients:

• 4 chicken drumsticks;
• 300 g of buckwheat;
• 2 onions;
• 1 carrot;
• 2 ml of water;
• 1.5 tbsp. l. sunflower oil;
• dried herbs to taste;
• salt to taste.

Cooking steps:

1. Rinse the chicken drumsticks.

   

   Chicken drumsticks can be replaced with thighs or any other chicken pieces

2. Chop the vegetables. Cut the onion into quarters of the rings, grate the carrots on a coarse grater.

   

   Chop vegetables the way you like to do it

3. Heat sunflower oil in a frying pan, fry vegetables until soft.

4. Place the fried onions and carrots on the bottom of the dish.

   

   Buckwheat will be more aromatic and juicy on a vegetable "pillow"

5. Rinse the buckwheat, lay on top of the vegetables in an even layer.

   

   Spread the groats evenly over the entire surface of the vegetable layer

6. Put the chicken in a mold with buckwheat and vegetables.

   

   If the legs are small, the amount of product can be increased

7. Season the dish with salt and spices to your liking.

8. Boil the water and pour gently into the mold.

   

   To make the dish cook faster, pour buckwheat with boiling water

9. Place the dish in an oven preheated to 180 degrees and cook for 30 minutes.
10. Try the dish after half an hour. If the groats are still firm, add a little water and continue cooking for 10 minutes.
11. Check the readiness of the food again. Add water again if necessary. Pierce the chicken with a wooden skewer. The escaping liquid should be clear.

12. Serve in the pan or on platter.

    

    The dish turns out to be beautiful, very tasty and satisfying.
