Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Savory Chicken en Cocotte.
Step 1
Begin by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C).
Step 2
In a sturdy Dutch oven, warm a splash of olive oil over medium heat.
Step 3
Introduce the chicken pieces, generously seasoning them with salt and pepper.
Step 4
Sear the chicken, turning occasionally, until it achieves a golden-brown hue on all sides, which should take about 8 to 10 minutes.
Step 5
Next, add in the quartered potatoes, chopped carrots, celery, onion, garlic, and chicken bouillon cubes, creating a colorful medley.
Step 6
Pour in enough water to cover the ingredients and give everything a good stir to blend the flavors.
Step 7
Cover the Dutch oven and bring the mixture to a lively boil.
Step 8
Once bubbling, carefully transfer the covered pot to your preheated oven.
Step 9
Allow it to bake for approximately 45 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and the chicken is thoroughly cooked.
Step 10
To ensure perfection, the juices should run clear, and an instant-read thermometer should register 165°F (74°C) when inserted near the bone.
Step 11
Enjoy the delightful aroma that fills your kitchen as this comforting dish comes together!.
